2 PER CURIAM:
Akil Bey appeals the district court’s order dismissing
his complaint for failure to state a claim. On appeal, Bey
argues that the district judge should have recused himself,
pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 455(2012). Because Bey never presented
a motion for recusal to the district court, we review his claim
under the plain error standard. Fed. R. Civ. P. 52(b); see
United States v. Schreiber,
599 F.2d 534, 535-36(3d Cir. 1979)
(holding that where § 455 recusal was not raised before trial
judge, the standard of review is plain error). Our review of
the record reflects no bias or conflicts of interest on the part
of the district judge. Accordingly, we affirm the district
court’s order. 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
