PER CURIAM:
Drain Maurice Short appeals the district court’s order granting the Defendants’
motions to dismiss Short’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
district court. Short v. Wexford Health Sources, Inc., No. 8:16-cv-00319-GJH (D. Md.
filed Feb. 3, 2017; entered Feb. 6, 2017). We deny the motion to appoint counsel. 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
