PER CURIAM:

      Proceeding pro se, Yahudah Washitaw of EastTerra Indians (Washitaw), David

Hoskins, Kerklon Stackhouse, and Shawn Singletary seek to appeal the district court’s

order dismissing their amended complaint for failure to state a claim. See Fed. R. Civ. P.

12(b)(6). Because Washitaw may only proceed in federal court through licensed counsel,

we dismiss the appeal as to Washitaw. See Rowland v. Cal. Men’s Colony, Unit II Men’s

Advisory Council, 506 U.S. 194, 201-02 (1993); Fraass Survival Sys., Inc. v. Absentee

Shawnee Econ. Dev. Auth., 817 F. Supp. 7, 10-11 (S.D.N.Y. 1993). As to the remaining

Appellants, we have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

although we grant those Appellants leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. Yahudah Washitaw of EastTerra Indians v. PHH

Mortg. Corp., No. 5:17-cv-00377-BR (E.D.N.C. Dec. 21, 2017). We deny the motion for

judicial assistance by an indigenous tribe. 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 IN PART;
                                                                   DISMISSED IN PART
