PER CURIAM:

           In these consolidated appeals, Feliberto Diaz appeals the

district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983

(2000)   complaint.   We   have   reviewed   the   record   and   find   no

reversible error.*    Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the

reasoning of the district court.     See Diaz v. Lee, CA-01-732-5-BR

(E.D.N.C. Aug. 21, 2003; Jan. 7, 2004).        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




     *
      We note that because the Utilization Review Board (“URB”) is
not a “person” under § 1983, it was not necessary for the district
court to address the merits of Diaz’s claims against it.       See
Will v. Mich. Dep’t of State Police, 

, 70 (1989).
