PER CURIAM:

James Lawrence Smith appeals the district court’s 

order dismissing his civil rights complaint for failure to state 

a claim. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012). We have reviewed 

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

for the reasons stated by the district court. See Smith v. 

Clontz, No. 1:14-cv-00269-MR-DLH (W.D.N.C. filed Oct. 20, 2014, 

entered Oct. 21, 2014). 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
