Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Irvin E. Coleman, Appellant Pro Se. Hugh McCoy Fain, III, Mary Elizabeth Skora, SPOTTS, SMITH, FAIN & BUIS, P.C., Richmond, Vir- ginia, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Irvin E. Coleman appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his

(West Supp. 1999) complaint. We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of

the district court. See Coleman v. Ward, No. CA-98-263-2 (E.D. Va.

Nov. 17, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
