PER CURIAM:

          Juan Valdez appeals the district court’s order denying

his Bivens* action.      We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.     Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court.   See Valdez v. Federal Bureau of Prisons, No. CA-

04-2225-DKC (D. Md. Aug. 4, 2005).       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
