                                2
PER CURIAM:

            Heidi     Dragomir     appeals      the    district       court’s    order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge in part and

dismissing     without     prejudice      for     lack      of     standing     claims

Dragomir asserted on behalf of her minor child and dismissing

claims Dragomir asserted on her own behalf for failure to state

a claim.       We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

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

district     court.       B.D.     v.   Griggs,       No.   1:09-cv-00439-MR-DLH

(W.D.N.C. July 13, 2010).           We deny Dragomir’s motion to appoint

counsel.     We dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal    contentions     are     adequately     presented        in   the    materials

before   the    court    and   argument      would    not    aid      the   decisional

process.

                                                                              AFFIRMED

                                         3
