PER CURIAM:

Carl Kofi Mayers appeals the district court’s orders

dismissing his complaint against two federal correctional officers

under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (2000). 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. See Mayers v.

Smith, No. CA-00-1961-AM (E.D. Va. April 4 2002; May 29, 2002). 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
