Before WIDENER and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
John Edward Kuplen, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
John Edward Kuplen appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000) complaint and
motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the
district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-
ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Kuplen v.
Hamden, No. CA-00-48-5-H (E.D.N.C. Apr. 5 & May 16, 2000). 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
