PER CURIAM:

       De’Ante Octario Howard appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint.                     We

have     reviewed      the   record    and   find   no    reversible    error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court.      See Howard v. Kuhne, No. 5:13-cv-00062-FDW (W.D.N.C.

June 20, 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
