PER CURIAM:

             John Marvin Ballard appeals the district court’s order

granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss or, in the alternative,

for summary judgment, on his complaint filed pursuant to Bivens

v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403

U.S.   388   (1971),     and    denying   Ballard’s       motion      for    an   order

overruling Defendants’ objections to certain document production

requests.      Confining our review to the issues raised in the

informal brief, see 4th Cir. R. 34(b), we find no reversible

error and      affirm    the   district       court’s    judgment.       Ballard     v.

Johns,   No.    5:11-ct-03042-H       (E.D.N.C.         March   27,     2014).       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
