USCA4 Appeal: 22-1571 Doc: 10 Filed: 02/23/2023 Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM: The Ford Family (“Ford”) seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing Ford’s complaint for failure to state a claim, and appeals the order denying Ford’s postjudgment motions. Because the notice of appeal was filed more than 60 days after the court entered the order dismissing the complaint, that order is not properly before this court.

See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B). With respect to the court’s order denying Ford’s postjudgment motions, we have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. We therefore affirm the district court’s postjudgment 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
