Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: Walter D. Booker appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his complaint raising claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012), the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, 42 U.S.C. § 2000cc to 2000cc-5 (2012), and state law. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Booker v. Timmons, No. 1:14-cv-00555-JCC-IDD (E.D. Va. Sept. 23, 2014; July 14, 2015; Feb. 14, 2017). We deny the motion for injunctive relief pending appeal and 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.
