PER CURIAM: Tarik Hasan Hudgins appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment to Defendant and denying relief on Hudgins’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Hudgins’s pending motions and affirm the district court’s order. Hudgins v. Mullins, No. 7:22-cv-00170- MFU-JCH (W.D. Va. Mar. 31, 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
