PER CURIAM:
Zannie Jay Lotharp appeals the district court’s orders accepting the
recommendations of the magistrate judge, dismissing Lotharp’s civil complaint pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1), and denying reconsideration.* We have reviewed the record
and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. Lotharp v.
Office of the United States Attorney, No. 1:20-cv-01062-LCB-LPA (M.D.N.C. Apr. 8,
2022; May 11, 2022). 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 Lotharp did not receive the magistrate judge’s report and
recommendation, we previously vacated the district court’s initial order dismissing
Lotharp’s action and remanded with directions to provide Lotharp a copy of the
recommendation. See Lotharp v. Office of the United States Attorney, No. 21-6720, 2022
WL 203736, at *1 (4th Cir. Jan. 24, 2022). Lotharp timely objected once he received the
recommendation, and the district court dismissed the action after considering his
objections.
