PER CURIAM:
Daniel W. Phoenix appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983
complaint as frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b). We have reviewed the record and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order.* Jamison v. Herring,
No. 3:22-cv-00360-MHL-MRC (E.D. Va. May 25, 2023). 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
* Because we affirm the district court’s frivolousness finding, we need not reach the
court’s alternative determination that Phoenix’s action was malicious.
