See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Joseph B. Kennedy appeals the district court’s order granting
Neil A.G. McPhie’s motion to dismiss filed under Rule 12(b)(1) and
(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for lack of subject
matter jurisdiction. We have reviewed the record and the district
court’s opinion issued from the bench and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See
Kennedy v. McPhie, No. CA-99-358 (E.D. Va. Nov. 5, 1999); see also
Lovern v. Edwards, 190 F.3d 648, 655 (4th Cir. 1999); Davis v. Pak,
856 F.2d 648, 650 (4th Cir. 1988). We dispense with oral argument
because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in
the materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
AFFIRMED
