PER CURIAM:
Karim Abdul Akbar appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint. We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting
the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny Akbar’s motion for appointment of
counsel and affirm substantially on the reasoning of the district
court.* Akbar v. McKinney, No. CA-99-496 (M.D.N.C. July 20, 2001).
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-
tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court
and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
*
To the extent Akbar alleges a due process violation, we note
Akbar had an adequate post-deprivation remedy. See Hudson v.
Palmer, 468 U.S. 517 (1984).
