Douglas C. Riner appeals the district court’s order awarding summary judgment to defendant and denying his motion to stay the proceedings. 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. See Connecticut General Life Ins. Co. v. Riner, No. CA-00-65-1-JPJ (W.D.Va. Jan. 4, 2005). We deny Riner’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis in this court as moot because he paid the filing fee. 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
