PER CURIAM:

Santina M. Carney appeals the district court’s orders

precluding her from challenging the validity of a 1983 divorce

decree and determining that she has no claim for benefits under

her former husband’s pension plan, retirement plan, or health

and benefit plan, and also denying her motion for

reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in

forma pauperis, deny Carney’s motion for appointment of counsel,

and dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated by the district

court. Board of Trustees Masters Mates & Pilots Pension Plan v.

Carney, No. 1:13-cv-01005-WMN (D. Md. Dec. 3, 2013; Mar. 11,

2014). 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.

DISMISSED
