We affirm. We review de novo the district court’s dismissal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) of Tebib’s claims asserting that law enforcement and other officials violated his civil rights by not investigating or pursuing criminal charges against his wife. See Martin v. Duffy, 858 F.3d 239, 248 (4th Cir. 2017) (stating standard of review). Tebib has neither “an enforceable right to institute a criminal prosecution,” Lopez v. Robinson, 914 F.2d 486, 494 (4th Cir. 1990), nor any judicially cognizable interest in the prosecution or non-prosecution of another, Linda R.S. v. Richard D., 410 U.S. 614, 619 (1973). We further conclude that the court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing Tebib’s action without prejudice after he failed to comply with the court’s April 29, 2024, order. See Attkisson v. Holder, 925 F.3d 606, 620 (4th Cir. 2019) (stating standard of review). Lastly, the court did not abuse its discretion in denying Tebib’s Rule 59(e) motion. Tebib failed to alert the court to an intervening change in the controlling law, new evidence, or a clear error of law or a manifest injustice. See Robinson v. Wix Filtration Corp., LLC, 599 F.3d 403, 407 (4th Cir. 2010) (stating standard of review). 3 USCA4 Appeal: 24-6813 Doc: 12 Filed: 02/14/2025 Pg: 4 of 4 Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders and judgment. 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 4
