PER CURIAM:

       Elbert Smith appeals the district court’s order dismissing

his     42   U.S.C.     § 1983    (2012)       complaint,    as   amended,    after

conducting review pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b) (2012).                         We

have     reviewed      the   record      and     find   no    reversible     error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court.       See Smith v. Bunch, No. 7:15-cv-00491-JPJ-RSB (W.D. Va.

July 21, 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
