PER CURIAM: Tyrone D. Gladden appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint. * We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. Gladden v. Quinn, No. 5:23-cv-00136- MR (W.D.N.C. July 7, 2025). 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

* Gladden has filed a motion to appoint counsel. We deny the motion.
