Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. Frank A. Kaufman, Senior District Judge. (CA-85-3088-K).

David M. Williams, Appellant Pro Se. Alvin Ira Frederick, ECCLESTON & WOLF, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellees.

D. Md.

AFFIRMED.

Before RUSSELL, LUTTIG, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Appellant appeals from the district court's orders directing a response to and granting defendants' motion for attorneys fees and costs. 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. Williams v. Carter, No. CA-85-3088-K (D. Md. Oct. 30, 1995 & Dec. 28, 1995). 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.
