PER CURIAM:
Norman Gatewood appeals the district court’s order granting Sony Corporation of
America’s (“Sony”) renewed motion to dismiss Gatewood’s second amended complaint
purporting to allege a copyright infringement claim against Sony. We have reviewed the
record and discern no error by the district court. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s
judgment. See Gatewood v. Sony Corp. of Am., No. 3:19-cv-00087-FDW-DCK (W.D.N.C.
July 27, 2020). 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
