PER CURIAM:
Branden D. Hargrove appeals the district court’s orders dismissing his civil action
for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and for failure to state a claim, and denying his Fed.
R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion to alter the judgment. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. Hargove v. State Farm
Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., No. 5:25-cv-00433-FL (E.D.N.C. Oct. 14, 2025; Dec. 1, 2025). 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
