PER CURIAM:

            Christopher G. Hicks appeals the district court’s order

dismissing this action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. We

have     reviewed   the   record   and     find   no   reversible    error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court. Hicks v. Commissioner, No. 1:06-cv-00222 (W.D.N.C. Jan. 24,

2007).    We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                    AFFIRMED
