PER CURIAM:
Antwyn Gibbs appeals the district court’s order denying his postjudgment motion
for appointment of counsel. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we deny Gibbs’ motion for appointment of counsel on appeal and affirm the
district court’s order. * Gibbs v. Ames, No. 2:21-cv-00577 (S.D. W. Va. Sept. 15, 2023).
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
*
To the extent Gibbs seeks to appeal the district court’s order accepting the
magistrate judge’s recommendation and denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition, or
the court’s subsequent orders denying his other postjudgment motions, those orders are not
properly before us in this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A), (4)(A).
