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
