versus

A. WICKS, Sergeant; MARY COILBERT, Nurse; JACK LEE, Warden; GENE SHINAULT, Assistant Warden; DOC WATSON, Inmate Hearings,

Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District Judge. (CA-02-813-7)

Submitted: September 20, 2002 Decided: October 8, 2002

Before WILKINS, WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

John L. Bowman, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

John L. Bowman, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district

court’s order denying relief on his

(2000)

complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (2000). We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinion and find that this appeal

is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the district court. See Bowman v. Wicks, No. CA-02-813-7 (W.D.

Va. July 12, 2002). 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.

DISMISSED
