PER CURIAM:
Carol Scarlett appeals the district court’s order granting Defendant’s motion to
dismiss and dismissing for lack of subject matter jurisdiction Scarlett’s civil complaint filed
under the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 1346(b), 2671-80. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Scarlett’s motion for oral
argument and affirm the district court’s order. Scarlett v. Nat’l Science Found. NSF, No.
1:24-cv-00386-MSN-WEF (E.D. Va. Aug. 6, 2024). 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
