Benjamin   C.   Thompkins,  Jr.,  Appellant  Pro   Se.  Angela

Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

          Benjamin      C.   Thompkins,   Jr.,      appeals   the     district

court’s order granting the United States’ motion to dismiss and

denying Thompkins’ various motions including his Fed. R. Crim.

P. 33(b)(1) motion for new trial, his motion for disclosure, and

his motion to preserve evidence.          We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error.           Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons   stated   by    the   district    court.       United      States   v.

Thompkins, No. 3:08-cr-00339-REP-1 (E.D. Va. Feb. 10, 2012).                 We

grant leave to proceed in formal pauperis and dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                                                      AFFIRMED
