John William Gilbert, Appellant Pro Se. Anthony Paul Giorno,
OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Roanoke, Virginia, for
Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

            John William Gilbert appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his civil rights complaint.*     We have reviewed

the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on

the district court’s reasoning that the action was barred by the

doctrine of collateral estopped.     Allen v. McCurry, 

(1980).    Gilbert v. Isham, No. 5:07-cv-0075-gec (W.D. Va. Dec 5,

2007).    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




     *
      Although the action was addressed below as one pursuant to 42
U.S.C. § 1983 (2000), because the Defendant is a federal officer
and the complaint of conduct involved a federal misdemeanor
conviction, the action is one under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named
Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 

 (1971).
