David Wilkins v. Howard Lyles, Warden (Md. House of Correction), 838 F.2d 469, 4th Cir. (1987)

The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the district court's refusal to grant relief to David Wilkins under 42 U.S.C. Section 1983. The appellate court found the appeal to be without merit after reviewing the record and district court opinion. It also determined that the dispositive issues had been recently decided in prior cases, so it affirmed the lower court's judgment without holding oral arguments.

David WILKINS, Appellant,
v.
Howard LYLES, Warden (Md. House of Correction), Appellee.
No. 86-6561.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


March 16, 1987.

David Wilkins, pro se.


Stephen H. Sachs, Attorney General; J. Mark Moore, III, Assistant
Attorney General, for appellee.
Before WILKINSON and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER,
Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

A review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate discloses that this appeal from its order
refusing relief under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 is without merit. Because the
dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with
oral argument and affirm the judgment below on the reasoning of the district
court. Wilkins v. Lyles, C/A No. N-82-941 (D.Md., Jan. 9, 1986).

AFFIRMED.
