Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Beaufort. Patrick Michael Duffy, District Judge. (CA-03-3436) Submitted: May 12, 2004 Decided: May 21, 2004 Before WILKINSON and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Daniel Staley, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Daniel Staley appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.* See Staley v. South Carolina Dep’t of Corrections, No. CA-03-3436 (D.S.C. Dec. 4, 2003). 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 * We note that Staley’s objections to the report of the magistrate judge were timely under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (2000). Houston v. Lack, 487 U.S. 266 (1988). We have considered the objections in reaching our decision. - 2 -
