PER CURIAM:
Norman Gladden appeals the district court’s memorandum
opinion and order granting summary judgment to Gary Bangs and
dismissing his petition for review from an order of the
Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives, finding that he willfully violated the requirements
of the Federal firearms laws and denying his license under 18
U.S.C. § 923 (2006). We affirm.
This court reviews a district court’s grant of summary
judgment de novo, “viewing the facts and the reasonable
inferences drawn therefrom in the light most favorable to the
nonmoving party.” Emmett v. Johnson,
532 F.3d 291, 297 (4th
Cir. 2008); see also Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc.,
477 U.S.
242, 255 (1986). Summary judgment is proper “if the movant
shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact
and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.”
Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a). If the moving party sufficiently
supports its motion for summary judgment, the nonmoving party
must demonstrate “that there are genuine issues of material
fact.”
Emmett, 532 F.3d at 297.
We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
memorandum opinion and find no error. Accordingly, we affirm on
the reasoning of the district court. See Gladden v. Bangs, __
F. Supp. 2d __,
2012 WL 604027 (E.D. Va. Feb. 23, 2012). 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
