PER CURIAM:
Marie Therese Assa’ad-Faltas appeals the district court’s text order denying her
renewed Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. See Assa’ad-Faltas v. McCants,
No. 3:92-cv-02786-JFA (D.S.C. Jan. 5, 2022); see also Dowell v. State Farm Fire & Cas.
Auto. Ins. Co., 993 F.2d 46, 48 (4th Cir. 1993) (recognizing that a Rule 60(b) movant must
make a threshold showing of “timeliness, a meritorious defense, a lack of unfair prejudice
to the opposing party, and exceptional circumstances” (internal quotation marks omitted));
McLawhorn v. John W. Daniel & Co., 924 F.2d 535, 538 (4th Cir. 1991) (“[A] Rule 60(b)
motion is not timely brought when it is made three to four months after the original
judgment and no valid reason is given for the delay.”). We deny all pending motions. 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
