    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    D. Johnson Willis, Appellant Pro Se. Charles Christopher Henderson, Trenton, North Carolina; Dal Floyd Wooten, III, Kinston, North
    Carolina, for Appellees.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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. 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. Willis
    v. Town of Trenton, NC, No. CA-96-89-4-H (E.D.N.C. July 24, 1996).
    We deny Appellant's motion to amend his notice of appeal. 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
