PER CURIAM:

Hugh Royal Epps appeals the district court’s memorandum opinions and orders 

dismissing his complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2) (2018), and denying Epps’ 

motion to reconsider under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e). We have reviewed the record and find 

no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. 

Epps v. United States, No. 3:17-cv-00646-HEH-RCY (E.D. Va. Feb. 6, 2019; Aug. 26, 

2019). 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
