PER CURIAM:
Herschell L. Harris appeals the district court's order denying
his tort action as legally frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915 (1994),
amended by Prison Litigation Reform Act, 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. Harris v. Ferguson,
No. CA-96-239 (E.D. Va. Mar. 21, 1996). We deny Harris's motions to
appoint counsel, for discovery, for expedited treatment, and for
production of documents. We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-
rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
