E.D.N.C.

AFFIRMED.

Before MURNAGHAN, WILKINSON, and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Appellant appeals from the district court's orders granting summary judgment for all the Defendants, and denying Plaintiff's motions for new trial or reconsideration under Fed. R. Civ. P. 52, 59, and 60. Our review of the record and the district court's opinions discloses that these appeals are without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Broughton v. Smith, No. CA-90-193-5-BR (E.D.N.C. Aug. 9, 1993; Sept. 28, 1993). We deny Appellant's motion to stay decision pending the district court's action on a post-judgment motion. 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
