PER CURIAM:
Gregory Shawn Mercer appeals the district court’s orders
dismissing this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) action and denying his
motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. Mercer v. Fairfax Cnty.
Child Protective Servs., No. 1:15-cv-00302-LO-TCB (E.D. Va.
Aug. 25 & Dec. 17, 2015; Feb. 11, 2016). The motions to compel,
for a subpoena, to clarify, and to direct a state judge to
verify a record’s existence are denied. We grant the motions to
exceed the length limitations for the brief and to file amended
and supplemental informal reply briefs and amendments. 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
