PER CURIAM:

Lester Hardy appeals the district court’s order 

denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint. We 

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. 

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. See Hardy v. Branker, No. 5:08-ct-03163-H (E.D.N.C. 

Dec. 14, 2009). Further, we deny Hardy’s objection to the fee 

for this appeal being charged to his inmate account. We 

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal 

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the 

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
