PER CURIAM:
Robert B. Curington and Ashley Brooks Music appeal the
district court’s orders dismissing their copyright infringement
suit and awarding attorney’s fees and costs to the Defendants,
pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 505 (2006). We have reviewed the record
and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. Curington v. UMG
Recordings, Inc., No. 1:10-cv-00890-CCE-PTS (M.D.N.C. Aug. 12,
2011; Dec. 2, 2011). We deny Appellants’ motions 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
