PER CURIAM:

      Armando Despaigne Zulveta appeals the district court’s order dismissing his civil

complaint without prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. We have reviewed the

record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in

forma pauperis, we deny Zulveta’s motion to expedite decision and affirm for the reasons

stated by the district court. Zulveta v. The Barrett Law Firm, No. 1:19-cv-00978-CCE-

JLW (M.D.N.C. Mar. 2, 2020). 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
