    PER CURIAM:

    John Calvin Ruffin appeals from the district court's order denying relief under
    42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion
    discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the
    reasoning of the district court. Ruffin v. Johnson, C/A No. 87-517-AM
    (E.D.Va. Oct. 4, 1988). We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive
    issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

    AFFIRMED.
