PER CURIAM:
Bradley Meredith appeals the district court’s order dismissing his complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) (2012) for failure to state a claim. Pursuant to § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii), a district “court shall dismiss [a] case at any time” if the action “fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted.” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii). We review the dismissal of an action under § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) de novo. De’Lonta v. Angelone, 330 F.3d 630, 633 (4th Cir.2003).
Because Meredith’s complaint alleges violation of his constitutional rights, he presumably was attempting to bring a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) action. However, only those acting under color of state law are amenable to suit under § 1983. See West v. Atkins, 487 U.S. 42, 48, 108 S.Ct. 2250, 101 L.Ed.2d 40 (1988). Here, Meredith has failed to allege that the defendants (the mother of his child and the mother’s current partner) were state actors or provide any other legal basis for his suit.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and árgument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED.
