PER CURIAM:
Melvin M. Roane appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 complaint. We have reviewed the record and discern no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. Roane v. General Assembly, No. 1:23-
cv-00743-MSN-IDD (E.D. Va. Aug. 22, 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.
