John Paul Smith, Sr., Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

John Paul Smith, Sr., appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint for failure to

state a claim. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district court. Smith v. Virginia, No. 2:06-cv-00643-RBS-TEM (E.D.

Va. Jan. 17, 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
