See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals from the district court's order dismissing his civil action for failure to prosecute under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b), and denying his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinions and find no abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Burgess v. Andrews, No. CA-86-503-C-C-P (W.D.N.C. Sept. 21, 1994; Oct. 7, 1994). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate- rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
