PER CURIAM:
Thomas Cameron Whiteman appeals the district court’s order de-
nying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1998) complaint.
We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to
proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm on the reasoning of the
district court. See Whiteman v. Polavarapu, No. CA-98-160-R (W.D.
Va. Dec. 23, 1998). We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-
rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
