US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 79 F.3d 1141 (4th Cir. 1996) Submitted: November 30, 1995. Decided: March 19, 1996

James F. Jones, Appellant Pro Se. Victor Jerry Pane, Jr., SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Philadelphia, PA, for Appellee.

Before WIDENER, HALL, and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Appellant appeals from the district court's order dismissing his complaint under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b) (6) for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted and on grounds of res judicata. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion adopting the recommendation of the magistrate judge discloses no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Jones v. Chater, No. CA-94-3540-MJG (D. Md. Aug. 23, 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
