Joseph M. Russell, Appellant Pro Se. Christy Monolo, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia; William Norman Watkins, SANDS, ANDERSON, MARKS & MILLER, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Joseph R. Russell appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his civil complaint pursuant to District of Columbia

Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983), and Rooker v.

Fidelity Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413 (1923). We have reviewed the

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

the reasons stated by the district court. Russell v. McWeeny,

No. 4:08-cv-00063-JBF-JEB (E.D. Va. Oct. 2, 2008). 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
