- 2 - PER CURIAM:

In this forfeiture proceeding, Emmett Madison Graham,

Jr., appeals the district court’s order, after remand from this

court, granting the Government summary judgment. We have reviewed

the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm

for the reasons stated by the district court. See United States v.

Graham, No. CA-99-178-7-F (E.D.N.C. Dec. 19, 2003). 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
