PER CURIAM:

           Richard A. Miller, Sr. appeals the district court’s order

denying Miller’s motion for a preliminary injunction pursuant to

Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(a), denying Miller’s motion for defendants to

bear the cost for service of summons pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.

4(d), granting defendant Tammy Eggleston’s motion to set aside

entry of default judgment pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(c), and

granting all defendants’ motions to dismiss pursuant to Fed. R.

Civ. P. 12(b).    We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

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

district court.    See Miller v. U.S. Dep’t of Housing & Urban Dev.,

No. 1:05-cv-01045-NCT (M.D.N.C. Aug. 29, 2006).         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
