PER CURIAM:

David Thomas Silvers, Sr., appeals the district court’s 

orders denying relief on his civil complaint. We have reviewed 

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

for the reasons stated by the district court. Silvers v. Iredell 

Cty. DSS, No. 5:15-cv-00083-RLV-DCK (W.D.N.C. Feb. 3, 2016 & Apr. 

15, 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.

AFFIRMED
