George Marvin Warren, Jr., Warren & Warren, Bristol, Virginia, for Appellees.

W.D. Va.

AFFIRMED.

Before PHILLIPS, HAMILTON, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

Walter Steve Wilson, Jr., appeals from the magistrate judge's orders denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988).1  After review of the record and the magistrate judge's opinions, we affirm the grant of summary judgment on all claims except the excessive force claim on the reasoning of the magistrate judge.2  Wilson v. Honaker, No. CA91-727-R (W.D. Va. Apr. 21, 1992). As for Wilson's excessive force claim, we have reviewed the tapes of the hearing and find that the evidence supported the verdict against Wilson. Therefore, we affirm the judgment dismissing his claims. 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.

AFFIRMED

 1

The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1988)

 2

We also deny Wilson's Motion for Appointment of Counsel
