PER CURIAM:
This case is Joseph Jemsek’s third attempt to have a court undo disciplinary
actions taken against him by the North Carolina Medical Board (“NCMB”) in 2006 and
2008. See Jemsek v. Rhyne, 662 F. App’x 206, 208-09 (4th Cir. 2016) (No. 15-1420).
Jemsek appeals the district court’s order dismissing his complaint on the grounds that his
antitrust claims were barred by the Eleventh Amendment and he lacked standing to raise
claims against the former NCMB members and the current NCMB members in their
individual capacities, and denying Jemsek leave to file a second amended complaint. We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. Jemsek v. N.C. Med. Bd., No. 5:16-cv-00059-D
(E.D.N.C. Feb. 21, 2017). 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
