United States Attorney, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

       Robert A. Zander appeals the district court’s order accepting

the    magistrate   judge’s    recommendation   and   denying     relief   on

Zander’s action filed pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, and

a subsequent order denying reconsideration.           Zander also appeals

the magistrate judge’s order granting the Government’s motion for

a protective order.        We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.       Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court.         Zander v. United States, No. 1:12-cv-

00700-WO-JEP (M.D.N.C. Sept. 4, 2015; Mar. 31, 2016; July 7, 2016).

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
