2 PER CURIAM:

Denis Rivera appeals the district court’s orders denying relief on his

42 U.S.C. § 1983

(2012) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny Rivera’s motion to appoint counsel and affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court. Rivera v. Va. Dep’t. of Corr., No. 7:15-cv-00156-JPJ-RSB (W.D. Va.

Dec. 8, 2016 & Feb. 3, 2017). 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
