Dennis Sheldon Brewer, Individually and on
Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated,

              Appellant

       v.

Christopher A. Wray, Mr.; Director, Federal
Bureau of Investigation, et al.,

              Appellees

            ON APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
                      FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

       BEFORE:       Wilkins and Katsas, Circuit Judges, and Sentelle, Senior Circuit
                     Judge

                                      JUDGMENT

        This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court
for the District of Columbia and on the brief filed by appellant. See Fed. R. App. P.
34(a)(2); D.C. Cir. Rule 34(j). Upon consideration of the foregoing and the emergency
motion for a hearing, it is

      ORDERED that the emergency motion for a hearing be denied. Appellant has
not shown he is entitled to the requested relief. It is

         FURTHER ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the district court’s February 28,
2023 order be affirmed. The district court properly dismissed appellant’s case as
frivolous. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i); Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 325
(1989) (“[A] complaint . . . is frivolous where it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in
fact.”).
