PER CURIAM:


OPINION

Peter Lenox Allen appeals from the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm.*  Allen v. Prison Health Services, No. CA92-2326-S (D. Md. Jan. 22, 1993). 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 AS MODIFIED

 *

We affirm on the district court's reasoning the granting of summary judgment for Defendants Prison Health Services, Inc., Michael C. Murray, Samuel F. Saxton, Nurse Robinson, John Alden, Officer Stewart, and Nurse Jones. However, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(j), we modify the district court's order to dismiss without prejudice Officer Bell and the unnamed Defendants
