(3:18-cv-00868-JAG) Submitted: May 30, 2019 Decided: July 26, 2019 Before KEENAN, HARRIS, and QUATTLEBAUM, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Patrick O. Christian, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: Patrick O. Christian appeals the district court’s order dismissing his civil rights complaint as frivolous and for failure to state a claim under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Christian v. Jenkins, No. 3:18-cv-00868-JAG (E.D. Va. Jan. 30, 2019). 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 3
