Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Emmett Johnson Jafari appeals the district court’s order dis- missing his civil action for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Jafari v. Williams, No. CA-01-253-3 (E.D. Va. Aug. 1, 2001). We further deny Jafari’s motion to strike Appellees’ informal brief. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma- terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
