PER CURIAM:
Paul Luxama appeals the district court’s orders dismissing his claims against
several Defendants and granting summary judgment to the Secretary of the Army on his
Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. §§ 701-706 (2012), claim. We have reviewed
the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by
the district court. Luxama v. McHugh, No. 1:15-cv-01586-CMH-JFA (E.D. Va. July 2,
2018 & July 18, 2018). We deny Luxama’s motion for a transcript at government
expense. 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
