PER CURIAM:
Larry Brandon Moore appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 (2012) complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b) (2012). We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Moore’s motion for
appointment of counsel and affirm substantially for the reasons stated by the district
court. * Moore v. Solomon, No. 1:16-cv-00238-FDW (W.D.N.C. Oct. 25, 2016). 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
*
Contrary to the district court’s finding, Moore did allege that he was placed in
segregation prior to the prison disciplinary hearing and was punished after the hearing.
However, Moore received all the process he was due at that hearing, and his Thirteenth
Amendment claim is meritless. See Newell v. Davis, 563 F.2d 123, 124 (4th Cir. 1977).
