PER CURIAM:

               Anthony Roderick Phillip appeals the district court’s

order denying his motion for substitute counsel and granting the

GEO Defendants’ fourth motion for summary judgment.                          We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.                     Accordingly,

we affirm substantially for the reasons stated by the district

court.         Phillip v.        GEO   Group,    Inc.,     No.    5:09-ct-03115-FL

(E.D.N.C.       Nov. 5,     2012).        We    deny     Phillip’s    request      for

appointed 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

                                           2
