PER CURIAM:

               George Porterfield appeals the district court’s order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

relief    on    his    42   U.S.C.      § 1983    (2012)      complaint.          We    have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.                             Accordingly,

we   affirm      for   the      reasons    stated        by   the     district      court.

Porterfield      v.    Byars,     No.   9:13-cv-00497-JMC           (D.S.C.      Feb.    28,

2014).      Porterfield’s         motion    for     appointment          of    counsel   is

denied.        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
