Blakeman appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Blakeman v. Solana, No. 5:19-ct-03280-D (E.D.N.C. Apr. 16, 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
