PER CURIAM:
Darrel R. Fisher seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying relief on his
action filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of
Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971).* We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the appeal
for the reasons stated by the district court. Fisher v. Ralston, No. 5:18-ct-03165-FL
(E.D.N.C. Jan. 14, 2019). 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.
DISMISSED
* Although the new claims raised in the amended complaint were dismissed
without prejudice, the court’s order is final and appealable because Fisher cannot cure the
defects simply by amending the complaint. Goode v. Cent. Va. Legal Aid Soc’y, Inc., 807
F.3d 619, 629-30 (4th Cir. 2015).
