Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Rajul Ruhbayan, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Rajul Ruhbayan appeals the district court’s order dismissing under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) his complaint filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Ruhbayan v. Smith, No. 5:20-ct-03115-BO (E.D.N.C. Apr. 7, 2020). We deny Ruhbayan’s motion to suspend proceedings. 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
