PER CURIAM:

Jerry J. Mathis appeals the district court’s order granting 

summary judgment to Defendant, Senator C. Anthony Muse, on Mathis’ 

42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district 

court’s judgment. Mathis v. Muse, No. 8:13-cv-02597-JFM (D. Md. 

filed Feb. 25, 2016 & entered Feb. 26, 2016). We also grant 

Senator Muse’s motion to strike the exhibits attached to Mathis’ 

reply brief and deny Mathis’ motion to supplement the record with 

those exhibits. 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
