TURNER, Corrections Officer, Defendants - Appellees, and HAROLD W. CLARKE, Director of the Department of Corrections, Defendant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Glen E. Conrad, Senior District Judge. (7:18-cv-00420-GEC-PMS) Submitted: February 22, 2021 Before NIEMEYER, KING, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Metkel Alana, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. Decided: March 22, 2021 PER CURIAM: Metkel Alana, a Virginia prisoner who filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against the Director of the Department of Corrections (“the Director”) and three corrections officers, appeals the district court’s orders granting the Director’s motion to dismiss and granting the officers’ summary judgment motion. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Alana v. Rose, No. 7:18-cv-00420-GEC-PMS (W.D. Va. Dec. 20, 2019; June 8, 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
