        PER CURIAM:

               Andrew E. Zupko appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his complaint

        filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403

        U.S. 388 (1971), and the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 1346(b)(1), 2671-2680.

        We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the

        reasons stated by the district court. Zupko v. United States, No. 3:18-cv-00493-MHL-RCY

        (E.D. Va. Oct. 14, 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

                                                    3
