Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, Senior District Judge. (3:13-cv-00861-REP)

Submitted: November 18, 2014 Decided: November 20, 2014

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Samuel M. James, Appellant Pro Se. Jonathan Holland Hambrick, Assistant United States Attorney, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Samuel M. James appeals the district court’s order

granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss his complaint. We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.

James v. United States, No. 3:13-cv-00861-REP (E.D. Va. May 23,

2014). 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
