PER CURIAM
Ibrahim Oudeh and Teresa Sloan-Oudeh appeal the district court's order granting Defendant's motion to dismiss their civil action. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error in the court's determination that the action was barred by the doctrine of collateral estoppel. Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. Oudeh v. Goshen Med. Ctr., Inc., No. 5:22-cv-00193-D (E.D. N.C. Dec. 30, 2022). 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
