     Jeffrey B. Pine, Attorney General, Thomas A. Palombo, Special

Assistant Attorney General, and Ellen Evans Alexander, Deputy Chief

Legal Counsel on Motion for Summary Disposition for appellees.











March 4, 1999







                                 

             Per Curiam.  Upon careful review of the record, the

  briefs, and the history of this case, Taylor  v. State of Rhode

  Island, 101 F.3d 780 (1st Cir. 1996), rev'g 908 F. Supp. 92

  (D.R.I. 1995), we conclude that the district court properly

  granted summary judgment on the remaining procedural due

  process issue.  We reach this conclusion essentially for the

  reasons stated by the district court in the Memorandum and

  Decision dated August 7, 1998, and we do not need to embellish

  upon those reasons.  The appellants' particular arguments do

  not persuade us otherwise.

             The appellees' motion for summary disposition is

  granted. 

             The judgment is affirmed.  See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
