   OPINION

PER CURIAM.

Wendell K. Brown appeals from the District Court’s order denying his motion for relief from judgment. We conclude that the District Court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion; therefore, we will dismiss the appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B).

The parties are familiar with the facts, and we will only briefly revisit them here. In February 2001, Brown filed a § 1983 complaint alleging deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs and asserting federal constitutional as well as state law claims. He amended the complaint in August 2002 to add new defendants and remove others. In September 2003, the District Court granted all outstanding motions to dismiss and dismissed the complaint as to the remaining two defendants pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii). Brown did not appeal. In August 2004, Brown filed a motion for relief from judgment pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 60, claiming that “state and county prosecutors have refused to allow” him to bring his state law claims in state court. The" motion was denied. He then filed this timely appeal.

We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. The denial of a Rule 60(b) motion is reviewed for abuse of discretion. Reform Party of Allegheny County v. Allegheny County Dept. of Elections, 174 F.3d 305, 311 (3d Cir.1999). An appeal from the denial of relief under Rule 60(b) brings up only the subject matter of the Rule 60(b) motion and not the underlying case. Smith v. Evans, 853 F.2d 155, 158 n. 1 (3d Cir.1988).

The District Court correctly concluded that Brown failed to provide any basis for granting relief under Rule 60(b). Brown does not seek relief based on mistake, newly discovered evidence, or fraud. He also fails to show extraordinary circumstances that would warrant relief under Rule 60(b)(6). See Morris v. Horn, 187 F.3d 333, 342 (3d Cir.1999).

Because the District Court did not abuse its discretion in denying the Rule 60(b) motion, we will dismiss this appeal as lacking any arguable basis in law pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). Brown’s motion for appointment of counsel is denied.
