PER CURIAM:
Jerry C. Pulley appeals the district court’s order
accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation and denying relief
on his complaint filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000), based
on Pulley’s failure to exhaust administrative remedies. Pulley
also appeals the magistrate judge’s orders denying his motions to
amend the complaint and for the appointment of counsel. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm for the reasons stated by the district court, see Pulley v.
Rubenstein, No. CA-02-1217-5 (S.D.W. Va. Feb. 17, 2004), and by the
magistrate judge, see id. (Dec. 10, 2002; Mar. 10, 2003; Aug. 12,
2003). We deny Pulley’s motion for the appointment of counsel and
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
