See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM:

Vincent F. Rivera appeals from the district court’s

orders denying his motion to reopen a district court case or for

relief from the judgment, and denying his motion for

reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the district court. See Bowers v. Boyd, No. CA-90-3062-3-17

(D.S.C. Aug. 16, 2004 & Oct. 6, 2004); see also Fed. R. Civ. P.

60(b). We deny Rivera’s motions to amend the caption and to

- 3 -
supplement the record. 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
