PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. 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. Price v. Department of Corrections, Nos. CA-92-1560-AM; CA-93-13-AM; CA-93-14-AM; CA-93-15-AM; CA-93-16-AM (E.D.Va. Mar. 28, 1994). We modify the district court's order to one of dismissal because the unexecuted affidavits on which the district court relied were insufficient to support any findings. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 56 (required form of affidavits). Further, the record does not support the district court's statement that Appellant was given the notice required by Roseboro v. Garrison, 528 F.2d 309 (4th Cir.1975). 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
