    v.
    J.E. SAUNDERS, Correctional Officer, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 96-7128.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted Sept. 20, 1996.
    Decided Oct. 2, 1996.

    Dwayne Johnson, Appellant Pro Se.


    W.D.Va.
    AFFIRMED.
    Before NIEMEYER, HAMILTON, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Appellant appeals from the district court's order dismissing his 42 U.S.C.
    1983 (1994) complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be
    granted. 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. Johnson v. Saunders, No. CA-96-572-R (W.D.Va. July 15, 1996). 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.
