PER CURIAM:
Roderico Ramirez Rodriguez appeals the district
court’s order dismissing his civil complaint for lack of subject
matter jurisdiction under the doctrine of consular
nonreviewability and for failure to state a claim. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Ramirez
Rodriguez v. Clinton,* Case No. 5:12-cv-00252-BR (E.D.N.C. Jan.
22, 2013). 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 appeal, John F. Kerry has been substituted for his
predecessor, Hillary Rodham Clinton, as Secretary of State. See
Fed. R. App. P. 43(c)(2).
