PER CURIAM: Steven Dixon Prentice, a North Carolina inmate, appeals the district court’s order granting Defendants summary judgment in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights action. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. Prentice v. Haynes, No. 5:20-ct-03150-D (E.D.N.C. Mar. 3, 2023). 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
