MICHEL ANDRE DUKES, Plaintiff – Appellant, v. DETECTIVE M.R. RICHARDS, Defendant – Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. James C. Dever III, District Judge. (5:06-ct-03094-D)

Submitted: February 18, 2009 Decided: February 24, 2010

Before WILKINSON, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Michel Andre Dukes, Appellant Pro Se. Scott Christopher Hart, SUMRELL, SUGG, CARMICHAEL, HICKS & HART, PA, New Bern, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Michel Andre Dukes appeals the district court’s order granting the Defendant summary judgment on Dukes’ 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) claims against him. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. See Dukes v. Richards, No. 5:06-ct- 03094-D (E.D.N.C. Aug. 27, 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.

AFFIRMED
