PER CURIAM:

Ron B. Lancaster appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation 

of the magistrate judge and dismissing Lancaster’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint as frivolous 

and for failure to state a claim under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). We have reviewed the 

record and discern no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Lancaster’s motion for 

appointment of counsel and affirm the district court’s order. Lancaster v. Overby, No. 

1:23-cv-00620-WO-JLW (M.D.N.C. July 10, 2024) 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
