PER CURIAM

1

Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's* order dismissing his complaint filed pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C.A. Secs. 2671-2680 (West 1965 & Supp.1994). Our review of the record and the magistrate judge's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. Gordon v. United States Marshal Service, No. CA-93-46 (E.D. Va. May 4, 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

The parties consented to disposition of this case by a magistrate judge
