PER CURIAM:
By order entered March 31, 2005, the district court
permanently enjoined and prohibited Bahman Payman from filing any
lawsuit against Gabor Laufer, M.D., and other named individuals
without first obtaining written leave from the court. In February
2006, Payman sought leave from the district court to file a lawsuit
against Laufer. By order entered February 28, 2006, the district
court denied Payman’s request. Payman now appeals the district
court’s denial.
We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. In re: Bahman Payman, No. 2:06-MC-00003-jpj (W.D. Va.
Feb. 28, 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
