PER CURIAM: James J.

P. 59(e) motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. Royal v. Bassett, 7:08-cv-00222-jlk-mfu (W.D. Va. Dec. 9, 2008; Jan. 8, 2009). 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.
