Jakie Hammonds, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Jakie Hammonds appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000) complaint for failure to state a claim under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (West Supp. 2000). 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 Hammonds v. North Caro- lina, No. CA-99-793-5-BR (E.D.N.C. Apr. 3, 2000). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
