PER CURIAM:
Matthew L. Thacker appeals the district court’s order granting Defendants’ motions
for summary judgment in this action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and dismissing Thacker’s
claims for injunctive relief as moot. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Thacker v.
Breckon, No. 1:20-cv-00609-LO-WEF (E.D. Va. Aug. 19, 2022). We grant the motion for
leave to file supplemental informal opening brief and 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
