USCA4 Appeal: 23-6948 Doc: 19 Filed: 04/15/2024 Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM: Eric Davis appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) for failure to comply with a court order by failing to complete a portion of the complaint form and failing to complete a summons form for the Defendant. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b); Attkisson v. Holder, 925 F.3d 606, 620, 625-27 (4th Cir. 2019), and affirm the district court’s order. Davis v. Freeman, No. 4:23-cv-03590-MGL (D.S.C. Sept. 11, 2023). We deny Davis’ motion to appoint counsel. 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
