Vinson Ballard, M.S., proceeding pro se on appeal after being represented by counsel in the district court, makes largely unintelligible complaints about the proceedings and results of a court supervised and approved settlement of various employment claims between Ballard and Jackson State University, the sole remaining Defendant-Appellee. We have carefully and painstakingly reviewed the record on appeal, including the briefs of the parties and the various rulings and orders of the magistrate judge and the district court from which Ballard appears to appeal. As a result of our review, we find no reversible error in any of the proceedings or rulings, and conclude that Plaintiff-Appellant Ballard has had all the procedural and substantive process to which he is due. The orders and rulings from which Ballard appeals are, in all respects, AFFIRMED. 2
