PER CURIAM:

              Joyce    Branch-Williams       appeals   the   district    court’s

order dismissing her complaint on the basis of res judicata and

collateral estoppel.          We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.        Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court.         Branch-Williams v. Spencer, No. 1:09-cv-

02687-JFM (D. Md. Jan. 13, 2010 & Feb. 17, 2010).                 We also deny

Branch-Williams’ pending motions to expedite, for procedural and

substantive     relief,    for   emergency      financial    relief,     and   for

summary judgment.         We 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

                                         2
