SHON ASHBY, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE; UNITED STATES CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION SERVICES, (USCIS); REX TILLERSON, Secretary of State, Defendants - Appellees.
Shon Ashby appeals the district court's order dismissing his amended complaint under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1), (6), for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and failure to state a claim. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court, Ashby v. U.S. Dep't of State, No. 3:16-cv-00585-FDW-DCK (W.D.N.C. Apr. 12, 2017). To the extent that Ashby seeks to raise a new issue on appeal, we perceive no exceptional circumstances that would allow us to reach such an issue. See Pornomo v. United States, 814 F.3d 681, 686 (4th Cir. 2016). We deny Ashby's motion to remove Appellees' attorneys and nullify the judgment, motion for return of visa application fees, motion to add additional defendants, and motion for fraud. 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
PER CURIAM:
