Lester Daniel Bryson and John Frank Bowen, Appellants Pro Se.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

               Appellants Lester Daniel Bryson and John Frank Bowen

appeal the district court’s order dismissing their 42 U.S.C. § 1983

(2000) complaint and a subsequent order denying their motion to

vacate judgment and motion for recusal.                 We have reviewed the

record and find no reversible error.              Accordingly, we affirm for

the reasons stated by the district court.             See Bryson v. Johnston,

No. CA-03-227-1-MU (W.D.N.C. filed Nov. 7, 2003 & entered Nov.

13,    2003;    Feb.    17,   2004).    We     deny   Appellants’   motion   for

appointment of counsel.          We further deny Appellants’ motion for

oral    argument       because   the   facts    and   legal   contentions    are

adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                      AFFIRMED
