PER CURIAM:

      George Reynold Evans appeals the district court’s orders denying the appointment

of counsel, striking Evans’ declaration, accepting the recommendations of the magistrate

judge, and denying relief on Evans’ 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We have

thoroughly reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for

the reasons stated by the district court. Evans v. Capps, Nos. 7:15-cv-00252-BO, 7:17-

cv-00004-BO (E.D.N.C. July 25, 2017 & Sept. 27, 2018). We deny Evans’ motion for

the appointment of counsel and his motion to remand. 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
