PER CURIAM:

The Appellants in these consolidated appeals seek to appeal 

the district court’s orders affirming the bankruptcy court’s 

orders dismissing each of the three underlying adversary 

proceedings for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Because we 

find that the proceedings were not “related to” the Chapter 11 

bankruptcy case in which they were filed, see Valley Historic 

Ltd. P’ship v. Bank of N.Y., 486 F.3d 831, 835 (4th Cir. 2007), 

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. 

Grathwol v. Coastal Carolina Developers, Inc.; Ann F. Grathwol 

Living Trust v. Coastal Carolina Developers, Inc.; Legacy Group 

of NC, Inc. v. Coastal Carolina Developers, Inc., Nos. 7:14-cv00082-F; 7:14-cv-00083-F; 7:14-cv-00084-F (E.D.N.C. Jan. 12, 

2015). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and 

legal contentions are adequately addressed in the materials 

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional 

process. 

AFFIRMED
