PER CURIAM:
Timothy Gadson appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
appointment of counsel. We have reviewed the record and conclude that the court acted
within its discretion in denying Gadson’s motion. See Miller v. Simmons, 814 F.2d 962,
966 (4th Cir. 1987) (reviewing district court’s denial of appointment of counsel for abuse
of discretion). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Gadson,
No. 5:01-cr-00084-CMC-1 (D.S.C. Jan. 9, 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
