2 PER CURIAM:

Lokesh Vuyyuru, M.D., Virginia Gastroenterology

Associates PC, and Virginia Times, Inc., appeal from the

district court’s various orders (1) dismissing their complaint,

(2) imposing sanctions and a pre-filing injunction, (3) denying

their motion to vacate, (4) denying their motion to reconsider,

(5) denying their motion for disclosure from the court, and (6)

denying their motion to disqualify the district court judge. We

have carefully reviewed the record in this case and have

considered the arguments made by the Appellants and their amici,

both in their briefs and at oral argument. We find no

reversible error and, therefore, affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court. See Vuyyuru v. Jadhav, No. 3:10-cv-173

(E.D. Va. April 19, 2011 & Aug. 30, 2011). We also deny the

Appellees’ pending motion for sanctions and deny, as moot, the

Appellants’ related motion to strike.

AFFIRMED
