La Dan E. Batty, Sr., Appellant Pro Se. Katherine H. Levy, Stephen Michael Silvestri, JACKSON LEWIS PC, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

La Dan E. Batty, Sr., appeals the district court’s

orders dismissing his amended complaint and denying

reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court. Batty v. Merton, No. 1:13-cv-00270-GLR

(D. Md. Aug. 14, 2013; Sept. 17, 2013). We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before this court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
