PER CURIAM:
Michael R. Ward appeals from the magistrate judge’s * order
granting Defendant’s motion for summary judgment. We have reviewed
the record and the magistrate judge’s opinion and find no revers-
ible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magis-
trate judge. Ward v. Peters, No. CA-98-1273-DKC (D. Md. May 29,
2001). 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
