Submitted: February 28, 2011.

Decided: March 4, 2011.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Danville. Jackson L. Riser, Senior District Judge. (4:10-cv-00035-JLK-MFU).

Merle T. Rutledge, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Martha White Medley, Michael Anthony Nicholas, Daniel, Medley Kirby, PC, Danville, Virginia, for Appellee.

Before TRAXLER, Chief Judge, and KING and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


Merle T. Rutledge, Jr., appeals the district court's orders dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint and denying his motion to amend his complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Rutledge v. Roach, No. 4:10-cv-00035-JLK-MFU, 2010 WL 3835662 (W.D.Va. Sept. 30, 2010) 2010 WL 4791840 (Nov. 18, 2010). 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.
