2 PER CURIAM:

Robert B. Curington and Ashley Brooks Music appeal the

district court’s orders dismissing their copyright infringement

suit and awarding attorney’s fees and costs to the Defendants,

pursuant to

17 U.S.C. § 505

(2006). We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. Curington v. UMG

Recordings, Inc., No. 1:10-cv-00890-CCE-PTS (M.D.N.C. Aug. 12,

2011; Dec. 2, 2011). We deny Appellants’ motions for

appointment of 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
