PER CURIAM:

Byron C. Briggs appeals the district court’s orders denying 

his motion to set aside the Government’s scope-of-employment

certification, see 28 U.S.C. § 2679(b)(1), (d)(1) (2012), and 

granting the Government’s motion to dismiss his complaint. We 

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. 

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. Briggs v. United States, No. 5:13-cv-00844-BR (E.D.N.C. 

Jan. 6, 2015; Feb. 2, 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
