AFFIRMED.

Before PHILLIPS, WILKINSON, and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant appeals from the district court's orders denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988) complaint. Our review of the record and the district court's opinions and orders granting summary judgment and denying the motion for reconsideration discloses that these appeals are without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Rankins v. Zbozien, No. CA-93-1955 (D. Md. Dec. 9, 1993; Jan. 5, 1994). 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
