PER CURIAM
In these consolidated appeals, Bruman Stalin Alvarez, a Maryland inmate, appeals the district court's judgment entered after trial and the order denying Alvarez's motion for a new trial. Alvarez fails to show any error in the jury instructions. He also fails to show that counsel was ineffective to the extent that we should reverse due to plain error. Lastly, we have reviewed de novo that district court's order granting summary judgment to Wexford Health Sources, Inc., and find no error. See Ballengee v. CBS Broad., Inc., 968 F.3d 344, 349 (4th Cir. 2020) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm. We deny Alvarez's motion for appointment of 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
