PER CURIAM:

John Anderson, Jr., appeals the district court’s order 

granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss and dismissing Anderson’s 

complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible 

error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the 

district court. Anderson v. Virginia, No. 2:14-cv-00604-AWA-LRL 

(E.D. Va. Sept. 15, 2015). 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
