PER CURIAM:

William Wagner appeals the district court’s orders

dismissing, after a bench trial, his negligence action brought 

pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C.A. §§ 1346(b), 

2671–2680 (West 2006 & Supp. 2014), and denying his motion for a 

new trial. We have considered the parties’ arguments and have 

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, 

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Wagner 

v. United States, No. 3:12-cv-00130-GCM (W.D.N.C. Apr. 2, 2014; 

Aug. 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
