PER CURIAM:

Horace L. Falls, Jr., appeals the district court's order deny-

ing 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 Falls v. Cummings, No. CA-97-490-7-R

(W.D. Va. Aug. 11, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

AFFIRMED
