No. 94-2617.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Feb. 16, 1995.
Decided March 2, 1995.

Godfrey L.C. Phelps, Appellant pro se.

Before HAMILTON and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988) complaint. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.* 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 also note that Appellant's request for review of a state court proceeding in the district court is foreclosed by District of Columbia Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983), which precludes federal jurisdiction if constitutional claims are inextricably intertwined with the merits of a state court judgment
