                                2
PER CURIAM:

     Bartholomew Robinson, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district

court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp.

1999) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 1999).    We

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

that this appeal is frivolous.   Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal

on the reasoning of the district court.     Robinson's motions for

appointment of counsel and law library access are denied.      See

Robinson v. Gilmore, No. CA-99-534-2 (E.D. Va. May 6, 1999).    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.




                                                         DISMISSED
