Avery Demond Jeter appeals the district courts order denying his motion for appointment of counsel to determine whether he was entitled to postconviction relief pursuant to United States v. Lockhart, 947 F.3d 187 (4th Cir. 2020), and United States v. Gary, 954 F.3d 194 (4th Cir. 2020), cert. granted, ––– U.S. ––––, 141 S.Ct. 974, 208 L.Ed.2d 510 (2021). Because Jeter had not filed a postconviction motion in the district court, there was no pending action in which to appoint counsel to represent Jeter. Accordingly, we affirm. United States v. Jeter, No. 7:07-cr-00695-BHH-1 (D.S.C. Oct. 20, 2020). We deny Jeters motion for appointment of counsel and 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.
