Edward L. Wiggins, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Edward L. Wiggins appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint for failure to state a claim. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Wiggins v. Johnson, No. 3:17-cv-00840-HEH-RCY (E.D. Va. Aug. 20, 2018). We further deny Wiggins’ motion for an evidentiary hearing. 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
