PER CURIAM:
Linda A. Evans filed a complaint against the Pitt County
Department of Social Services (“DSS”), George Perry, April
Hanning, Cynthia Ross, Linda Million, and Linda Curtis alleging
claims pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) and under state law.
The district court accepted the recommendation of the magistrate
judge and dismissed all of Evans’ claims against DSS, Perry,
Ross, and Million except her claims of procedural due process
violations.* The court later granted summary judgment in favor
of Curtis on Evans’ remaining claims. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we
grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm the district
court’s orders. 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
* On Perry, Ross, and Million’s previous appeal of the
district court’s interlocutory order denying them absolute
immunity from Evans’ claims of procedural due process
violations, we vacated the portion of the district court’s order
allowing those claims to go forward and remanded with
instructions to dismiss those claims. Those issues are
therefore not before this court in the current appeal.
