Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant, a Virginia inmate, 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 friv-
olous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the
district court. Molinero v. Smith, No. CA-97-1166-AM (E.D. Va. Aug.
8, 1997). 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
