PER CURIAM:

Craig R. Roberts appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2002) complaint. We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting

the magistrate judge’s recommendation and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See

Roberts v. Rubenstein, No. CA-01-281-2 (S.D.W. Va. May 10, 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
