Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Ronald Hayward appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983
(2012) complaint after the parties reached a settlement agreement in which Hayward
agreed to release his claims against the defendants. On appeal, Hayward does not dispute
the existence of the agreement or that its terms are clear and constitute the entire
agreement among the parties. Because Hayward proffers no viable challenge to the
enforceability of the agreement, we affirm the judgment of the district court. * We further
deny the motion to appoint 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
*
On the same day he noted his appeal, Hayward filed a Fed. R. Civ. P. 59 motion,
which the district court subsequently denied. Because Hayward did not note a separate
appeal of the order denying his Rule 59 motion, that order is not before this court. Fed.
R. App. P. 4(a)(4)(B)(ii).
