PER CURIAM: Appellants appeal from the district court's orders dismissing their complaint in which they sought $16 million in damages for the alleged wrongful disclosure of return information in a notice of levy by the Internal Revenue Service, denying their motion for reconsideration, denying their motion for recusal of the district court judge, and denying as moot their motions filed after entry of the judgment. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinions. Accordingly, we deny the Appellees' motion for the impo- sition of sanctions and affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Tom v. Reno, No. CA-96-1820-A (E.D. Va. Feb. 28, Mar. 4, 11, and 20, 1997). 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 2
