PER CURIAM:

William A. Murphey appeals the district court’s orders 

denying his motion to appoint counsel, denying relief on his 42 

U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint, and denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 

59(e) motion. We have reviewed the record and find no 

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated 

by the district court. Murphey v. Maynard, No. 8:08-cv-01711-

DKC (D. Md. filed Jan. 23, 2009 & entered Jan. 26, 2009; 

Mar. 16, 2009; filed Apr. 15, 2009 & entered Apr. 16, 2009). We 

deny Murphey’s motion for a transcript at government expense 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
