PER CURIAM: 

Keith Slaydon appeals the district court’s orders 

dismissing his civil action and ordering that he pay Defendants’

expenses as sanctions for misconduct during discovery. We have 

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, 

we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and affirm for the 

reasons stated by the district court. Slaydon v. Water Country 

U.S.A., No. 4:14-cv-00133-RGD-LRL (E.D. Va. Jan. 6 & Feb. 4, 

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
