PER CURIAM:

Rodger Hanson appeals the district court’s orders granting 

Defendant’s motions for summary judgment in this civil rights 

action, denying Hanson’s motion to appoint counsel, and denying 

his motion to compel discovery. We have reviewed the record and 

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Hanson’s motion 

to remand and affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. Hanson v. Owens, No. 5:14-ct-03078-D (E.D.N.C. Oct. 9, 

2014; Feb. 10, 2015; Oct. 16, 2015; June 20, 2016). 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
