PER CURIAM:

Elbert Smith appeals the district court’s order dismissing 

his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint, as amended, after 

conducting review pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b) (2012). We 

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. 

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. See Smith v. Bunch, No. 7:15-cv-00491-JPJ-RSB (W.D. Va. 

July 21, 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
