PER CURIAM:

     LaDerrick L. Alston appeals the district court’s order and

judgment granting summary judgment to the Town of Winnsboro and

James    Jimmy    Burroughs   and   dismissing   Alston’s   civil    rights

complaint.       We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.   As for Alston’s claim that Burroughs did not have probable

cause to arrest him and did not seek to have the charges dismissed

after it was revealed that Alston was innocent, we find that

Burroughs was entitled to qualified immunity.        See Porterfield v.

Lott, 

 (4th Cir. 1998).        We further find that Alston

did not establish a claim against the Town of Winnsboro.            See Doe

v. Broderick, 

, 455-56 (4th Cir. 2000).         Accordingly,

we affirm.       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.
