Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Sakima Iban Salih El Bey, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Sakima Iban Salih El Bey appeals the district court’s
order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
dismissing without prejudice his civil complaint, which sought a
declaratory judgment as a national of the United States pursuant
to 8 U.S.C. § 1503(a) (2006) and 28 U.S.C. § 2201(a) (2006). We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order on the ground
that El Bey failed to show that he “claims a right or privilege
as a national of the United States and [was] denied such right
or privilege by any department or independent agency, or
official thereof, upon the ground that he is not a national of
the United States.” 8 U.S.C. § 1503(a); see El Bey v. Mueller,
No. 3:09-cv-01216-SB (D.S.C. Aug. 12, 2009). 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
