Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Marlow L. Bates, Sr., appeals the district court’s
orders dismissing his copyright infringement suit for failure to
state a claim upon which relief could be granted and denying his
post-judgment motion for leave to amend his complaint. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See
Bates v. Samsung Electronics Am., Inc., No. 1:10-cv-03158-JFM
(D. Md. July 20, 2011 & Dec. 1, 2011). We further deny Bates’
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
