PER CURIAM:
Lester Daniel Bryson and John Frank Bowen, North Carolina
inmates, appeal the district court’s order dismissing their 42
U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2002) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A.
§ 1915A(b)(1) (West Supp. 2002) for failure to state a claim. We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and we
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See
Bryson v. Johnston, No. CA-02-89-1-2 (W.D.N.C. Apr. 29, 2002). We
further deny the pending motion for the appointment of counsel and
for oral argument as the facts and legal contentions are adequately
presented in the materials before the court and argument would not
aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
