PER CURIAM:
Jerome Anthony Howard appeals the district court’s order
denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Howard v.
Smith, No. CA-03-144-7 (W.D. Va. filed Mar. 23, 2005 & entered
Mar. 24, 2005). We further deny Howard’s motion for the
appointment of 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
