Submitted: April 29, 1994

W.D.Va.
AFFIRMED.
Before WIDENER and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and SPROUSE, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals from the district court's order that granted the United States' motion to substitute it as a party defendant in the place of Defendant Powell and granted the Defendants' motions to dismiss.1 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. Sampang v. Dep't of State Police, No. CA-92-545 (W.D.Va. Aug. 19, 1993).2 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 court properly construed some of Appellant's claims under the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C.A. Secs. 2671-2680 (West 1985 & Supp. 1994), some under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), and some under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988)
We deny Appellant's Motion for Reconsideration of this Court's previous order that denied him in forma pauperis status, his "Motion to Inhibit the Court to Proceed on the Case," and his motion for change of venue
