PER CURIAM:

       Lynton    Ballentine        appeals       the     district       court’s     order

dismissing       his    complaint         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.        Ballentine v. James B. Nutter & Co., No.

3:15-cv-00496-FDW-DSC (W.D.N.C. June 1, 2016).                        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
