Judge Traxler did not participate in consideration of this
case. The opinion is filed by a quorum of the panel pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 46(d).
PER CURIAM:
Fred Shores, Jr., appeals the district court’s order adopting
the report and recommendation of the magistrate judge denying his
petition to preserve evidence under Fed. R. Civ. P. 27. We have
reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district
court. See In re: Shores, No. CA-00-747-1 (M.D.N.C. Jan. 19,
2001). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
