    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. W. Earl Britt, District Judge.
    (CA-97-108-5-BR)
    Submitted:

    August 14, 1997

    Decided:

    August 21, 1997

    Before NIEMEYER, Circuit Judge, and BUTZNER and PHILLIPS, Senior


    Circuit Judges.
    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Michael McLean, Appellant Pro Se.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on
    his 42 U.S.C. 1983 (1994) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. 1915A
    (West Supp. 1997). 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.
    McLean v. Philmon, No. CA-97-108-5-BR (E.D.N.C. Apr. 7, 1997). The
    motion for appointment of counsel is denied. 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
