    Defendant - Appellee.
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at

    Submitted: November 10, 2020                                Decided: November 18, 2020
    Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, and FLOYD and THACKER, Circuit Judges.
    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Under Seal, Appellant Pro Se.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant Under Seal appeals the district court’s order abstaining from and
    dismissing Appellant’s civil action seeking equitable relief in an ongoing state proceeding
    pursuant to Younger v. Harris, 
    401 U.S. 37
     (1971); Huffman v. Pursue, Ltd., 
    420 U.S. 592
    (1975). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm
    the district court’s order. See Ohio Civil Rights Comm’n v. Dayton Cristian Sch., Inc., 
    477 U.S. 619
    , 625-29 (1986); Middlesex Cnty. Ethics Comm. v. Garden State Bar Ass’n, 
    457 U.S. 423
    , 431-37 (1982); Robinson v. Thomas, 
    855 F.3d 278
    , 285-86 (4th Cir. 2017);
    Nivens v. Gilchrist, 
    444 F.3d 237
    , 246-48 (4th Cir. 2006). 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
