PER CURIAM:

     Edward James Clark appeals the district court granting Defen-

dant's motion for summary judgment. We have reviewed the record and

the district court's opinion and find no reversible error. Although

the district court failed to provide Clark notice of Defendant's

motion for summary judgment motion, and a warning that failure to
file opposing affidavits could result in a grant of summary judg-

ment for the moving party, as required under Roseboro v. Garrison,

, 310 (4th Cir. 1975), we find that, under the circum-

stances, such error was harmless. Accordingly, we affirm the dis-

trict court's opinion. 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. Defendant's motion to strike Plaintiff's untitled motion,
in which he asserts new claims, is granted. We deny Appellant's

motion for disclosure of evidence.




                                                          AFFIRMED
