PER CURIAM:

Timothy Gadson appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for appointment of counsel. We have reviewed the record and conclude that the court acted within its discretion in denying Gadson’s motion. See Miller v. Simmons, 814 F.2d 962, 966 (4th Cir. 1987) (reviewing district court’s denial of appointment of counsel for abuse of discretion). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Gadson, No. 5:01-cr-00084-CMC-1 (D.S.C. Jan. 9, 2023). 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
