        PER CURIAM:

               Ishtiaq A. Malik appeals the district court’s order granting Defendant’s motion for

        summary judgment in Malik’s civil action seeking review of the dismissal of his request

        for an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) hearing as untimely. We have reviewed the record

        and find no reversible error. Accordingly, affirm the district court’s order. Malik v. U.S.

        Dep’t. of Health & Hum. Servs., No. 1:20-cv-00091-RDA-TCB (E.D. Va. June 1, 2022).

        We deny Malik’s motion to appear in person. 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
