Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Robert S. Ballard appeals the district court’s order granting Defendants’ motion
for summary judgment and dismissing Ballard’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. Ballard v. Mullins, No. 5:15-ct-03045-H (E.D.N.C.
Sept. 26, 2016). 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
