PER CURIAM:
Joshua Lee Blackwell appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 42
U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Blackwell v.
Houser, No. 5:16-cv-00067-FDW (W.D.N.C. Oct. 18, 2017). 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
