PER CURIAM:

       Charles      H.   Carter       appeals       the    district       court’s   order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

Carter’s motion, which was construed as a motion for contempt in

relation to a settlement agreement that the court had previously

approved.     We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.      Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district court.          See Carter v. Baltimore City Police Dep’t, No.

1:04-cv-03842-WDQ         (D.   Md.     Sept.     16,     2014).     We    grant    Carter

leave to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis.                        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

                                              3
