PER CURIAM:

     William     Wagner       appeals    the    district    court’s     orders

dismissing, after a bench trial, his negligence action brought

pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C.A. §§ 1346(b),

2671–2680 (West 2006 & Supp. 2014), and denying his motion for a

new trial.      We have considered the parties’ arguments and have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.                Accordingly,

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.                  Wagner

v. United States, No. 3:12-cv-00130-GCM (W.D.N.C. Apr. 2, 2014;

Aug. 21, 2014).         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

                                         2
