PER CURIAM:
Raphael Mendez appeals the district court’s order denying his
motion to remove his attorney. We have reviewed the record and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons
stated by the district court. United States v. Mendez, No. 5:91-
hc-00350-BR (E.D.N.C. Jan. 20, 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
