Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Joseph    B.    Lambert    appeals    the    district      court’s     order

granting the Defendants’ motion to dismiss and denying Lambert’s

motion to amend his complaint as futile.                  We have reviewed the

record and find no reversible error.               Accordingly, we affirm for

the    reasons    stated    by     the   district        court.        Lambert   v.

Mecklenburg Cty., No. 3:15-cv-00577-GCM (W.D.N.C. June 2, 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
