OPINION
PER CURIAM:
Robert E. Bailes appeals in No. 91-7565 from the district court's final order dismissing Bailes's Bivens* action, and in No. 90-6929 from a prior order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate and dismissing his claims for damages but staying his claim for injunctive relief pending a decision of this Court in United States v. Stotts, 925 F.2d 83 (4th Cir.1991). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that these appeals are without merit.
Accordingly, in No. 90-6929 we dismiss the appeal from the dismissal of damage claims as interlocutory and we dismiss the appeal of the stay pending our decision in Stotts as moot. In No. 91-7565, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Bailes v. Hawk, CA88-818-CRT (E.D.N.C. Apr. 1, 1991). 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.
No. 90-6929 DISMISSED, No. 91-7565 AFFIRMED.
