PER CURIAM:
Sherman A. Thompson appeals the district court’s order
denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Thompson v.
Joyner, No. 5:06-ct-03013-FL (E.D.N.C. May 29, 2007). We deny
Thompson’s motion for 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
