PER CURIAM:

In these consolidated appeals, Michael A. Scott appeals the 

district court’s orders denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(4) 

motion and his motion for reconsideration. We grant Scott’s 

motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. We have reviewed 

the record and affirm for the reasons cited by the district 

court. Scott v. Norfolk S. Corp., No. 2:95-cv-00377-RBS; 2:95-

cv-00815-RBS (E.D. Va. Jan. 22, 2016; Feb. 22, 2016). We deny 

the Appellees’ motion for sanctions. 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
