We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Evans v. United States, No. 3:15-cv-00064-GMG-RWT (N.D.W. Va. Sept. 2, 2016). We deny Evans’ motions to compel and 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 3
