PER CURIAM:
Ziad Akl appeals the district court’s order granting
defendants’ motions to dismiss the complaint in this diversity
action. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error
in the district court’s ruling that the complaint fails to state a
claim on which relief can be granted. Accordingly, we affirm the
decision of the district court. Akl v. Dougherty, No. 1:06-cv-
00264-CMH (E.D. Va. filed June 7, 2006 & entered June 9, 2006). We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
