Catherine C. Blake, Chief District Judge. (8:15-cv-00206-CCB) Submitted: September 11, 2017 Decided: October 3, 2017 Before DUNCAN, KEENAN, and THACKER, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Robert Dent, Appellant Pro Se. Douglas Conrad Meister, Gina Marie Smith, MEYERS, RODBELL & ROSENBAUM, PA, Riverdale, Maryland, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: Robert Dent appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of Defendant Colin Ottey as to Dent’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) claim of deliberate indifference to his medical needs. * We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm substantially for the reasons stated by the district court. Dent v. Ottey, No. 8:15-cv-00206-CCB (D. Md. Mar. 9, 2017); see also Harrods Ltd. v. Sixty Internet Domain Names, 302 F.3d 214, 244-45 (4th Cir. 2002) (discussing requirements to preserve claim that summary judgment was granted prematurely). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. 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 * Although Dent’s informal brief also identifies the district court’s March 17, 2016, order dismissing the action in part and granting summary judgment in part, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to review that order. See Fed. R. App. P. 3(c)(1)(B); Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 176-77 (4th Cir. 2014). 3
