UNPUBLISHED
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of South Carolina, at Statesville. Graham C. Mullen, Senior District Judge. (5:16-cv-00049-GCM) Before KEENAN, THACKER, and HARRIS, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. W. Thad Adams, III, Samuel A. Long, Jr., Christina D. Trimmer, Lucas D. Garber, SHUMAKER, LOOP & KENDRICK, LLP, Charlotte, North Carolina, for Appellant. Gary L. Beaver, NEXSEN PRUET PLLC, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
Sedgewick Homes, LLC, appeals the district court's order granting the Appellees' motions for attorney's fees and costs under 17 U.S.C. § 505. We review an award of attorney's fees for abuse of discretion. See Zoroastrian Ctr. & Darb-E-Mehr of Metro. Wash., D.C. v. Rustam Guiv Found. of N.Y., 822 F.3d 739, 754 (4th Cir. 2016). We have thoroughly reviewed the record and the parties' briefs, and we find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. Sedgewick Homes, LLC v. Bivins, No. 5:16-cv-00049-GCM (W.D.N.C. July 17, 2019). We decline to award additional attorney's fees on appeal. 4th Cir. R. 46(e). 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
