Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 820 F.2d 1220 (4th Cir. 1987) Submitted Nov. 21, 1986. Decided June 8, 1987

Before RUSSELL, WIDENER and ERVIN, Circuit Judges.

David R. Matthews, appellant pro se.

Robert E. Petersen, Office of the Attorney General, for appellees.

PER CURIAM:


A review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate discloses that this appeal from its order refusing relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 is without merit.*  Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument and affirm the judgment below on the reasoning of the district court. Matthews v. Leeke, C/A No. 85-2759 (D.S.C., Sept. 18, 1986).

AFFIRMED

 *

David R. Matthews is the only appellant in this case, as he alone signed the notice of appeal. See Covington v. Allsbrook, 636 F.2d 63 (4th Cir. 1980), cert. denied, 451 U.S. 914 (1981)
