PER CURIAM:

               Phillip Mark Shafer appeals the district court’s order

dismissing       without    prejudice    his    42   U.S.C.      § 1983    (2006)

complaint.       We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.     Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district court.         Shafer v. Ellis, No. 8:08-cv-00482-PJM (D. Md.

Feb. 29, 2008).            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
