OPINION
PER CURIAM:
Advertisement
Incarcerated Paralegal Association, Incorporated appeals from the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.* Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Incarcerated Paralegal Ass'n, Inc. v. Saunders, No. CA-91-420-R (W.D.Va. Aug. 12, 1991). 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.
A corporation is an artificial entity that cannot be represented by a pro se litigant and, instead, must appear with counsel. See Palazzo v. Gulf Oil Corp., 764 F.2d 1381, 1385 (11th Cir.1985), cert. denied, 474 U.S. 1058 (1986)
