Abanoob Abdel-Malak, Appellant Pro Se. Benjamin N. Thompson, Charles George, WYRICK ROBBINS YATES PONTON, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Abanoob Abdel-Malak appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing Abdel-Malak’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court and deny Abdel-Malak’s pending motions. Abdel-Malak v. Cape Fear Valley Med. Ctr., No. 5:20-cv-00221-BR (E.D.N.C. Sept. 28, 2020). 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 2
