Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, at Charlotte. Robert J. Conrad, Jr., District Judge. (3:16-cv-00051-RJC-DCK) Submitted: July 27, 2017 Decided: August 1, 2017 Before AGEE and FLOYD, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. My’Ka El, Appellant Pro Se. Daniel Edward Peterson, CITY ATTORNEY’S OFFICE, Charlotte, North Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: My’Ka El appeals the district court’s orders denying his motion for the appointment of counsel and denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. El v. Reese, 3:16-cv-00051-RJC-DCK (W.D.N.C. Aug 18, 2016 & Feb. 28, 2017). We deny El’s motion seeking a restraining order and the 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 3
