U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, 2017

Clayton Vines v. Dr. Inder Gujral

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided July 31, 2017 · Agee, Floyd, Hamilton, Per Curiam

694 F. App'x 152

Opinion

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Clayton Vines appeals the district court’s order granting Defendant’s motion for summary judgment in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) action. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. * Vines v. Gujral, No. 2:15-cv-00516-AWA-RJK (E.D. Va. Mar. 2, 2017). 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

To the extent that Vines seeks to raise new claims on appeal, he fails to demonstrate that exceptional circumstances warrant consideration of those claims. See Pomomo v. United States, 814 F.3d 681, 686 (4th Cir. 2016) ("Absent exceptional circumstances we do not consider issues raised for the first time on appeal.” (ellipsis omitted)).
