OSEI v. UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND UNIVERSITY COLLEGE UMUC UMUC (2018)

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Michael OSEI, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND UNIVERSITY COLLEGE (“UMUC”); The Office of Financial Aid, UMUC; Javier Miyares; Julie Lindenmeier; Clairbourne W. Patty; Terrence Cooper; Lynette O'Leary, Defendants-Appellees.

No. 16-2074

Decided: February 06, 2018

Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, DUNCAN, Circuit Judge, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Michael Osei, Appellant Pro Se. Christopher Bowie Lord, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MARYLAND, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellees.

Michael Osei appeals the district court's order dismissing his civil complaint against the University of Maryland University College and certain employees of the university. Osei requested leave to amend his complaint in his opposition to Defendants' motion to dismiss, but the court did not consider that request in its order dismissing the complaint. Accordingly, we vacate the district court's judgment and remand to allow the court to decide whether leave to amend should be granted. We deny Osei's motions for assignment of counsel and for default judgment. 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.

VACATED AND REMANDED

PER CURIAM:

Vacated and remanded by unpublished per curiam opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
