PER CURIAM:

James Hairston appeals the district court’s orders denying

class certification, separating a jointly filed civil action 

into separate civil actions under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012), and 

dismissing Hairston’s complaint without prejudice for failure to 

comply with the court’s prior order to file an affidavit of his 

intent to proceed and other documents. We have reviewed the 

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

the reasons stated by the district court. Hairston v. McPeak, 

No. 7:15-cv-00274-EKD-RSB (W.D. Va. June 3, 2015; June 4, 2015; 

June 5, 2015; June 26, 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
