Robert Hicks, appellant pro se.
Gayl Y. Branum-Carr, Office of the Attorney General of Virginia, Richmond, Va., for appellee.
W.D.Va.
AFFIRMED.
Before WIDENER, HAMILTON and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges.
OPINION
PER CURIAM:
Robert Hicks appeals from the magistrate judge's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988).* Our review of the record and the magistrate judge's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. Hicks v. Jackson, No. CA-91-524-R (W.D.Va. Nov. 26, 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.
AFFIRMED.
The district court referred this matter to the magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(c)(2) (West Supp.1991)
