Lester Daniel Bryson and John Frank Bowen appeal the district court’s order dismissing their 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Bryson v. Johnston, No. CA-02-252-1-2 (W.D.N.C. filed Nov. 22, 2002 & entered Nov. 25, 2002). We deny Appellants’ motions for appointment of counsel, for oral argument, and to dismiss as untimely the informal brief of Appellees Johnston and Bridges. We further deny as moot Appellants’ motion to extend time to file PLRA documents and their informal brief. We 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.
