Michael A. LEON, Appellant v. OGLETREE, DEAKINS, NASH, SMOAK & STEWART P.C. and United States of America, Appellees.
    No. 13-5040.
    United States Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit.
    June 24, 2013.
    Michael A. Leon, Tucson, AZ, pro se.
    R. Craig Lawrence, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Washington, DC, for Appellees.
    BEFORE: TATEL, BROWN, and GRIFFITH, Circuit Judges.
   JUDGMENT

PER CURIAM.

This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and on the brief, appendices, and motion to expedite filed by the appellant. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2); D.C.Cir. Rule 34(j). It is

ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the district court’s order filed January 24, 2013, be affirmed. Appellant did not meet his burden of demonstrating that the district court had subject matter jurisdiction over his claims against the non-federal appellee. See Georgiades v. Martin-Trigona, 729 F.2d 831, 833 n. 4 (D.C.Cir.1984). The district court also properly dismissed appellant’s claims under the Federal Tort Claims Act for failure to exhaust. See McNeil v. United States, 508 U.S. 106, 113, 113 S.Ct. 1980, 124 L.Ed.2d 21 (1993); 28 U.S.C. § 2675. It is

FURTHER ORDERED that the motion to expedite be dismissed as moot.

Pursuant to D.C. Circuit Rule 36, this disposition will not be published. The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after resolution of any timely petition for rehearing or petition for rehearing en banc. See Fed. R.App. P. 41(b); D.C.Cir. Rule 41.
