PER CURIAM:

Tremaine L. Kitchen appeals the district court’s order 

granting defendants’ motions to dismiss and for summary judgment 

and denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We 

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. 

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. Kitchen v. Ickes, No. 8:14-cv-02022-DKC (D. Md. July 14, 

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
