PER CURIAM:
Billy Joe Tedder appeals the district court’s judgment
entered after a jury found for the defendant on Tedder’s 42
U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint in which he alleged excessive
force. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm. We deny Tedder’s motion for the
preparation of a transcript at government expense, and his
motion for appointment of counsel. 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
