PER CURIAM:

     Robert       B.     Holt     appeals        the   district       court’s        order

dismissing      the    first    amended     complaint       without    prejudice       for

failure    to   comply     with    Fed.     R.    Civ.    P.      8(a)(2).     We     have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.                          Accordingly,

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.                            Holt v.

Stroman,    No.       3:12-cv-03539-JMC         (D.S.C.     Mar.    11,    2015).       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
