Submitted: January 31, 2002 Decided: February 13, 2002

Before LUTTIG and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior by unpublished Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Kenneth E. McPherson, Riverdale, Maryland, for Appellant. J. Joseph Curran, Jr., Attorney General of Maryland, Randolph Stuart Sergent, Assistant Attorney General, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

PER CURIAM:

Charles E. Brooks appeals from the district court’s order

dismissing his civil action pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6).

Brooks contends that the district court erred in finding defendant

Lloyd Albert Johnson, a Maryland Assistant State’s Attorney, was

entitled to qualified immunity. Our review of the record and the

district court’s opinion show the district court correctly found

Johnson was entitled to qualified immunity. Accordingly, we affirm

the district court’s dismissal of Brooks’ civil action.

AFFIRMED
