PER CURIAM:
John H. Harding and Lisa A. Tomlinson appeal the district
court’s orders dismissing their complaint for want of jurisdiction
and denying their motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the
record and the district court’s orders and find no reversible
error. The Rooker-Feldman doctrine provides that a United States
District Court has no authority to review final judgments of a
state court in judicial proceedings. Brown & Root, Inc. v. Breck-
enridge, 211 F.3d 194, 198 (4th Cir. 2000) (quoting District of
Columbia Ct. App. v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983)). Accordingly,
we affirm. 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
