PER CURIAM: Alfred and Gwen Locklear appeal the district court’s order denying relief on their civil action raising claims under the Fair Housing Act and 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1998). We have re- viewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Locklear v. Board of Commissioners, No. CA-97- 1277-1 (M.D.N.C. Dec. 1, 1998). We deny the Locklears’ motion to appoint 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
