U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 917 F.2d 557 (4th Cir. 1990) Submitted Oct. 1, 1990. Decided Nov. 1, 1990

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia, at Beckley. Charles H. Haden, II, Chief District Judge. (CA-90-356-5)

Sidika Crawford, appellant pro se.

S.D. W.Va.

AFFIRMED.

Before DONALD RUSSELL and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


Sidika Crawford appeals from the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.*  Crawford v. Gunnoe, CA-90-356-5 (S.D.W. Va. May 25, 1990). 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.

 *

In addition to the reasons cited by the district court, we note that all defendants in this case which are state actors were sued in their official capacity and thus are not subject to suit under Sec. 1983. See Will v. Michigan Dep't of State Police, 57 U.S.L.W. 4677 (U.S. June 15, 1989) (No. 87-1207)
