PER CURIAM:
Franklin Livestock, Inc., appeals the district court’s orders dismissing its lawsuit
as a sanction for discovery abuses and denying its motion to alter or amend judgment.
We have reviewed the record and the district court’s thorough and well-reasoned orders,
and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Franklin Livestock, Inc. v. Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc., No. 5:15-cv-
00063-BO (E.D.N.C. Apr. 18, 2017; June 15, 2017). 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
