Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 838 F.2d 468 (4th Cir. 1988) Submitted Aug. 17, 1987. Decided Jan. 26, 1988

James Lenard Small, appellant pro se.

Jacob Leonard Safron, Special Deputy Attorney General for Office of Attorney General of North Carolina, for appellees.

Before WIDENER, K.K. HALL, and JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges.

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. Small v. Barker, C/A No. 85-1331-CRT (E.D.N.C. Mar. 25, 1987).

AFFIRMED.
