PER CURIAM:
Felix Cheesboro, a South Carolina inmate, appeals the district
court’s order dismissing Defendant Jeffery Bloom from his 42
U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint. We have reviewed the
record and the district court’s opinion accepting the magistrate
judge’s recommendation and find that, because the underlying action
has been voluntarily dismissed, this appeal is moot.* Accordingly,
we dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-
rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
*
The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate
judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2001).
