Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Karen Dishman Powell appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his

(2000) 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. Powell v. St. Paul Police Dep’t, No. CA-01-27-2

(W.D. Va. July 23, 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.

AFFIRMED
