PER CURIAM: Dora L. Adkins appeals the district court’s order denying her motions for leave to file a proposed emergency complaint and to expedite. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Adkins’ motion to expedite decision and affirm the district court’s order. Adkins v. Va. Polytechnic Inst. & State Univ., No. 1:25-cv-00973-MSN-WBP (E.D. Va. June 11, 2025). 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
