PER CURIAM:
Santina M. Carney appeals the district court’s orders
precluding her from challenging the validity of a 1983 divorce
decree and determining that she has no claim for benefits under
her former husband’s pension plan, retirement plan, or health
and benefit plan, and also denying her motion for
reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in
forma pauperis, deny Carney’s motion for appointment of counsel,
and dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated by the district
court. Board of Trustees Masters Mates & Pilots Pension Plan v.
Carney, No. 1:13-cv-01005-WMN (D. Md. Dec. 3, 2013; Mar. 11,
2014). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
