Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Jackson v. Smith, No. CA-94-114-HAR (D. Md. June 15, 1995). 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 2
