Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Robert Hayes appeals the district court’s order dismissing his civil complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Hayes v. Security & Exchange Comm’n, No. 1:07-cv-01786-AMD (D. Md. July 25, 2007). 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
