PER CURIAM:
Genger Poole, as administrator of the Estate of William Dean Poole (“the Estate”),
appeals from the magistrate judge’s grant of summary judgment to Sergeant W.P.
Downey on the Estate’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) claims.* We have reviewed the record
and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
magistrate judge. Poole v. Gaston, No. 3:15-cv-00309-DCK (W.D.N.C. Oct. 6, 2017).
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
* The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate judge, pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 636(c) (2012).
