PER CURIAM:
Robert Wearing, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district
court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp.
2001) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 2001) for
failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. We have
reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find that
this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on
the reasoning of the district court. Wearing v. Shelton, No. CA-
01-789-AM (E.D. Va. filed Sept. 26, 2001; entered Sept. 27, 2001).
We further deny Wearing’s motion for appointment of counsel on
appeal. 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.
DISMISSED
