Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 53 F.3d 328 (4th Cir. 1995) Decided May 10, 1995. Submitted April 20, 1995

Before WIDENER, WILKINSON, and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

Luther C. Braxton, Appellant Pro Se. Samuel James Thompson, Jr., Joy Lee Price, Caskie & Frost, Lynchburg, VA, for Appellees.

PER CURIAM:


Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint and dismissing the pendant state law claims. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion, and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Braxton v. Gold, No. CA-93-41 (W.D. Va. Nov. 4, 1994). 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
