PER CURIAM:

Matthew Wakefield appeals the district court’s order 

dismissing his complaint as frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b) 

(2012). We have reviewed the record and find that this appeal 

is frivolous. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) (2012). 

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated by the 

district court. Wakefield v. Circuit Court of Va., No. 1:16-cv00666-AJT-JFA (E.D. Va. Aug. 26, 2016). 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.

DISMISSED
