Anton Purisima, Appellant Pro Se.
UNPUBLISHED
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Liam O'Grady, Senior District Judge. (1:20-cv-00065-LO-JFA) Before HARRIS and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Anton Purisima, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
Anton Purisima appeals the district court's orders dismissing his amended civil complaint for failure to state a claim, see 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii), and denying his motions for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Purisima v. Cnty. of Arlington Va., No. 1:20-cv-00065-LO-JFA (E.D. Va. filed Jan. 24, 2020 & entered Jan. 27, 2020; filed & entered Feb. 5, 2020; filed & entered Mar. 4, 2020). 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.
Although Purisima did not file a separate notice of appeal from the court's March 4, 2020, order denying his second motion for reconsideration, we conclude that we have jurisdiction to review that order. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B), (2), (4), (7)(A)(ii); Smith v. Barry, 502 U.S. 244, 248-49 (1992) (holding that informal brief may act as functional equivalent of notice of appeal); United States v. Little, 392 F.3d 671, 680 (4th Cir. 2004) (discussing separate document rule).
AFFIRMED
