    No. 89-6727.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: Oct. 10, 1989.
    Decided: Dec. 7, 1989.

    Calvin Ford, appellant pro se.


    Mark Ralph Davis (Office of the Attorney General of Virginia) and John
    Adrian Gibney, Jr. (Shuford, Rubin & Gibney), for appellees.
    Before HARRISON L. WINTER, DONALD RUSSELL and SPROUSE,
    Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Calvin Ford appeals from the magistrate's order dismissing the Commonwealth
    of Virginia and granting summary judgment against Ford's 42 U.S.C. 1983
    action. Our review of the record and the magistrate's opinion discloses that this
    appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the
    magistrate. Ford v. Commonwealth of Virginia, CA-88-45-R (E.D.Va. June 23,
    1989).

    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.
    3

    AFFIRMED.
