See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Timothy Ocltree appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Ocltree v. Phillips, No. CA-03-306-5-H (E.D.N.C. Sept. 16, 2004).

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
