Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western
District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District
Judge. (CA-02-69)


Submitted:   August 29, 2002           Decided:   September 6, 2002


Before WIDENER and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.


Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Skip Adams Taylor, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).




                                3
PER CURIAM:

     Skip Adams Taylor, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district

court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000)

complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (2000).     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.   See Taylor v. Hinkle, No. CA-02-69 (W.D.

Va. May 22, 2002). 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
