PER CURIAM:
Riley Thornock appeals the district court’s orders denying his motion to proceed in
forma pauperis and denying reconsideration. * We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we grant Thorncock’s motion to seal the medical records
attached to his motion to assign counsel, deny his motion for sanctions and to assign
counsel, and affirm the district court’s order and deny all pending motions. Thornock v.
Bedford Cnty., Va., No. 3:25-cv-00057-DJN (E.D. Va. Jan. 30 & Feb. 18, 2025). 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
* The order denying Thorncock’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis is an
immediately appealable order. Roberts v. U.S. Dist. Ct., 339 U.S. 844, 845 (1950).
