Before WILKINSON and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and SPROUSE, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


Lester Barnett, Jr., appeals from the district court's and the magistrate judge's*  orders denying relief under 42 U.S.C.s 1983 (1988). Our review of the record and the opinions discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court and the magistrate judge. Barnett v. DeLoatch, No. CA-89638 (E.D.N.C. Jan. 14, 1991, Feb. 13, 1992 & July 8, 1992). 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

 *

The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1988) for the hearing on Barnett's excessive force claim
