PER CURIAM:
Appellant, a North Carolina, appeals the district court's
order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint under
28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) (1994), amended by Prison Litigation Reform Act
("PLRA"), Pub. L. No. 104-134, 110 Stat. 1321 (1996). We have
reviewed the record and the district court's opinion and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the
district court. Watson v. Allen, No. CA-96-504-BR (E.D.N.C. July
30, 1996). We modify the district court's order to reflect that the
dismissal is without prejudice. 28 U.S.C. § 2106 (1994). We dis-
pense 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 AS MODIFIED
