PER CURIAM:

     David    C.   Bickley   appeals       the   district   court’s   orders:

(1) granting the Defendants’ motion to dismiss his action filed

pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act (“FTCA”), 28 U.S.C.A.

§ 1346 (West 1993 & Supp. 2000), and Bivens v. Six Unknown Named

Agents of the Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971); and

(2) denying his subsequent motion for reconsideration.                We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and orders and

find no reversible error.     Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning

of the district court.       See Bickley v. United States Dep’t of

Treasury, No. CA-99-347-7 (W.D. Va. Jan. 19 & Feb. 22, 2000).              We

deny Bickley’s motion for discovery and his motion to obtain vari-

ous transcripts and records.      We dispense with oral argument be-

cause the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.
