224 F. App'x 235 (4th Cir. 2007)

Opinion

No. 06-7562.

Submitted: November 17, 2006.

Decided: April 18, 2007.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. T.S. Ellis, III, District Judge. (1:05-cv-00707-TSE).

Michael E. Hodge, Appellant Pro Se. Steven Michael Ranieri, Brian Eugene Bentley, Office of the United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Before NIEMEYER, GREGORY, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


Michael E. Hodge appeals the district court's orders dismissing his civil action under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971), and the Federal Tort Claims Act for injuries that he received as a result of surgery performed on his right foot. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Hodge v. United States, 443 F.Supp.2d 795 (E.D.Va. 2006). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
