PER CURIAM:
Darrin King appeals the district court’s order
granting summary judgment for the Appellee on King’s claim of
disability discrimination. On appeal, we confine our review to
the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. Rule
34(b). King’s brief fails to challenge the district court’s
dispositive conclusions that he failed to demonstrate a prima
facie case of discrimination and that the Appellee had
legitimate, non-discriminatory reasons for not hiring King.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order and deny
King’s motions to appoint counsel. We dispense with oral
argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately
presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid in the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
