In these consolidated appeals, Edward Richardson appeals the district court's orders denying relief on his employment discrimination complaint and related claims as well as his motions to recuse, for a change of venue, for stay of the proceedings, and an order granting the defendants’ motion for a stay of discovery pending a ruling on their motion to dismiss. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Richardson v. Prince William Cty. Gov't, No. 1:17-cv-00761-CMH-TCB, 2018 WL 548666 (E.D. Va. Jan. 22, 2018; Jan. 24, 2018; Jan. 31, 2018; Feb. 9, 2018). 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
