PER CURIAM:

L. Ruther appeals the district court’s order in his 

civil action denying his motion to reconsider the denial of the 

court’s earlier order denying his motion for a jury trial. The 

district court’s order, denying Ruther’s motion for a new trial,

was filed on August 21, 2008, and Ruther’s motion to reconsider 

that order was filed on October 13, 2009. Concluding the motion 

to reconsider was untimely filed, the district court denied 

relief. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible 

error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the 

district court. Ruther v. United States, No. 3:07-cv-00475-JRS 

(E.D. Va. Dec. 17, 2009). 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
