PER CURIAM:
Darien Cornelius June appeals the district court’s order adopting the magistrate
judge’s recommendation to grant Defendants summary judgment on June’s state law
defamation claims and his claims brought pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17.* Limiting our review to the issues raised in June’s
informal brief, see 4th Cir. R. 34(b); Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014),
and to the magistrate judge’s rulings to which June specifically objected, see Martin v.
Duffy, 858 F.3d 239, 245-46 (4th Cir. 2017), we find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm the district court’s order. June v. Dick Smith Auto. Grp., No. 3:23-cv-04995-MGL
(D.S.C. Aug. 5, 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
* June has filed a motion for appointment of counsel, which we deny.
