Appeals from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. W. Earl Britt, Senior District Judge. (CA-00-368-5-BR) Submitted: September 25, 2001 Decided: October 10, 2001 Before WILKINS, WILLIAMS, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Donald E. Davis, Appellant Pro Se. Daniel Gerald Cahill, THE SANFORD HOLSHOUSER LAW FIRM, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). 2 PER CURIAM: Donald E. Davis appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his42 U.S.C.A. § 1983
(West Supp. 2001) complaint. Defendants cross appeal the denial of their motion for attorney’s fees and sanctions. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the grant of Defendants’ motions to dismiss on the reasoning of the district court. See Davis v. Town of Holly Springs, No. CA- 00-368-5-BR (E.D.N.C. Apr. 25, 2001). In addition, we find that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Defen- dants’ motion for attorney’s fees and sanctions. Thus, we affirm that order as well. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma- terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 3
