Brad R. JOHNSON, Individually, and as Parent on behalf of SMJ, a minor child, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. Rebecca ALLEN; Brandon Fuller; Michael Hodges; James Simmons; The Brunswick County Board of Education; County of Brunswick, State of North Carolina; Mose Highsmith, Defendants - Appellees.

No. 19-1579

Decided: November 12, 2019

Before KING, WYNN, and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges.

Brad R. Johnson, Appellant Pro Se. Christopher J. Geis, WOMBLE BOND DICKINSON (US) LLP, Winston-Salem, North Carolina; Benton Louis Toups, CRANFILL, SUMNER & HARTZOG, LLP, Wilmington, North Carolina; Julia C. Ambrose, Raleigh, North Carolina, Sarah Margaret Saint, Greensboro, North Carolina, Edwin Love West, III, BROOKS, PIERCE, MCLENDON, HUMPHREY & LEONARD, Wilmington, North Carolina, for Appellees.

Brad R. Johnson appeals the district court's orders granting the defendants’ motions to dismiss under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(b), denying his motions to amend his complaint, and denying his motion to alter or amend the judgment. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Johnson v. Allen, No. 7:18-cv-00014-D (E.D.N.C. Sept. 7, 2018; Apr. 25, 2019). We deny Johnson's 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.
