PER CURIAM:
Ralph T. Byrd appeals from the district court’s orders
dismissing for lack of jurisdiction his complaint in which he
alleged legal malpractice, and denying his motion for
reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error.* Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated
by the district court. Byrd v. Bergman, No. 8:11-cv-02086-RWT
(D. Md. filed Feb. 15, 2012; entered Feb. 16, 2012 & Mar. 15,
2012). 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
* To the extent that Byrd also seeks to appeal the district
court’s imposition of $15,000 in sanctions, we decline to
address that order because the contempt proceedings are still
ongoing.
