Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Walter Timothy Gause appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 complaint under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2), 1915A. We have reviewed the record
and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Gause v. Hooks, No. 3:20-cv-00507-MR (W.D.N.C. Oct. 26, 2020). We deny
Gause’s motion for a certificate of appealability and 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
