Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 61 F.3d 899 (4th Cir. 1995) Submitted May 18, 1995. Decided July 28, 1995

Raymond T. Harris, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Archer Lafayette Yeatts, III, Steven Scott Biss, MALONEY, YEATTS & BARR, P.C., Richmond, VA, for Appellee.

Before NIEMEYER and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. We have reviewed the record and the district court's order, and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the reasoning of the district court.*  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
