    Defendants-Appellees.
    No. 89-6767.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: Sept. 12, 1989.
    Decided: Nov. 9, 1989.

    Thomas Tyrone Johnson, appellant pro se.


    Samuel Bernard Goodwyn (McGuire, Woods, Battle & Boothe), for
    appellees.
    Before K.K. HALL, PHILLIPS and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Thomas Tyrone Johnson appeals from the district court's order denying relief
    under 42 U.S.C. 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. Johnson v. Avant, CA-88-830-N (E.D.Va.
    July 11, 1989). 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.
