PER CURIAM:
Jon Karl Thompson appeals the district court’s orders denying his motions for
appointment of a guardian ad litem and for transfer to Arkansas. Our review of the
record discloses that Thompson failed to demonstrate entitlement to appointment of a
guardian ad litem under Fed. R. Civ. P. 17(c). Nor has he demonstrated that Arkansas is
willing to accept responsibility for his custody, care and treatment. See 18 U.S.C.
§ 4248(d) (2012). Accordingly, we affirm. 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.
AFFIRMED
