AFFIRMED.
Before HALL, PHILLIPS, and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Advertisement
Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988) complaint. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm.* 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
To the extent that Easterling seeks damages, the district court properly granted summary judgment on the grounds of qualified immunity. We find that to the extent that Easterling sought declaratory relief, summary judgment was appropriate because Easterling failed to state a constitutional claim. See Berrier v. Allen, 951 F.2d 622, 625 (4th Cir.1991) (no liberty interest created by North Carolina prison regulations on administrative segregation)
