PER CURIAM:
Pacita D. Whatley, Reverend Dr. Samuel T. Whatley, and Samuel T. Whatley II,
appeal the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
dismissing without prejudice∗ the Whatleys’ action alleging violations of the False Claims
Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729 to 3733. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. Whatley v. Oakbrook Health &
Rehab. Ctr., No. 2:23-cv-02274-SAL (D.S.C. Dec. 13, 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
∗ The district court’s dismissal without prejudice is a final order because the court
dismissed the complaint “without granting leave to amend.” Britt v. DeJoy, 45 F.4th 790,
791 (4th Cir. 2022) (en banc) (order).
