Christopher CAPPS; William Richardson; Jason Weisinger; Ray McPherson, Deputy; Joe Byrd, Master Sgt.; Justin Heron, Deputy; Jeremy Barber, Lt.; Norman Dwayne Barnes, Master Sgt.; Steve Noble, Deputy; Lewis Hatcher, Sheriff; Michael L.

No. 18-7256

Decided: April 24, 2019

Before AGEE, WYNN, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges. George Reynold Evans, Appellant Pro Se. Terence Steed, Assistant Attorney General, NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Raleigh, North Carolina; Bradley O. Wood, WOMBLE BOND DICKINSON (US) LLP, Winston-Salem, North Carolina; Brian Edes, CROSSLEY MCINTOSH COLLIER HANLEY & EDES PLLC, Wilmington, North Carolina, for Appellees.

George Reynold Evans appeals the district court's orders denying the appointment of counsel, striking Evans’ declaration, accepting the recommendations of the magistrate judge, and denying relief on Evans’ 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We have thoroughly reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Evans v. Capps, Nos. 7:15-cv-00252-BO, 7:17-cv-00004-BO, 2018 WL 4635025 (E.D.N.C. July 25, 2017 & Sept. 27, 2018). We deny Evans’ motion for the appointment of counsel and his motion to remand. 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.
