2 PER CURIAM:

Katarina Ellis filed suit against several individuals and

agencies alleging various civil rights violations, including a vio-

lation of

(West Supp. 1999), The Rehabilitation

Act of 1973, The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and the

First, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.

Ellis now appeals the district court’s orders: (1) denying

her motion for appointment of counsel; (2) denying her motion to

proceed on appeal under pseudonym and motion to seal her statement

of facts and exhibits; (3) denying a letter received from her

friend construed as a motion for reconsideration; (4) granting in

part Defendant Lynn Hano Albizo’s motion to dismiss and granting in

part Albizo’s motion for summary judgment; (5) granting in part her

“motion for an increase in number of pages for answer memorandum

and permission to number lines,” but denying her motion for an

extension of time to file a response to State Defendants’ motion

for summary judgment; (6) denying her request to order the Division

of Rehabilitation Services of the Maryland State Department of

Education to move her records to a branch near her residence and

permit her to review her files during normal business hours and de-

nying her motion to have defense counsel provide their documents in

alternative audio format; (7) denying her motion for reconsider-

ation of various interlocutory orders and denying her motion for

recusal; and (8) granting State Defendants’ motion for summary

3 judgment and dismissing the case with prejudice pursuant to

(e)(2)(B)(i) (West Supp. 1999).

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion

and orders and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on

the reasoning of the district court. See Ellis v. Maryland Dep’t

of Educ., No. CA-98-3708-S (D. Md. Nov. 13, Nov. 20 & Dec. 17,

1998; Feb. 9, Feb. 18, Feb. 22, Mar. 3 & Mar. 16, 1999). We dis-

pense 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
