PER CURIAM:
Marie Therese H. Assa’ad-Faltas appeals the district court’s order denying her
self-styled Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion to reopen her civil action against numerous
defendants. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
deny Faltas’ motions for appointment of counsel and for this court to reconsider its order
deferring action on the motion for appointment of counsel, and we affirm the district
court’s order. See Assa’ad-Faltas v. Carter, No. 1:14-cv-00678-CCE-LPA (M.D.N.C.
Apr. 25, 2017). 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
