PER CURIAM:

       Roy L. Perry-Bey appeals the district court’s order administratively closing this

case, terminating all pending motions, and ordering that new actions be opened for each

individual plaintiff who filed a third amended complaint. * We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court. Perry-Bey v. U.S. Dep’t of Defense, No. 2:19-cv-00344-RAJ-DEM (E.D. Va.

May 13, 2021). We deny Perry-Bey’s motion for appointment of 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

       *
         Perry-Bey’s third amended complaint is currently pending in Perry-Bey v. U.S.
Dep’t of Defense, No. 2:21-cv-00268-RAJ-DEM.
