PER CURIAM:

Malcom Maxwell Ryidu appeals the district court’s order deny-

ing relief on his

(West Supp. 2001) 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. Ryidu v. Western Corr. Inst., Nos. CA-01-

52-H; CA-01-53-H; CA-01-58-H (D. Md. filed July 17, 2001 & entered

July 18, 2001). 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
