Hart,
Plaintiff – Appellant,
v.
PIEDMONT MEDICAL,
Defendant - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
South Carolina, at Rock Hill. Joseph F. Anderson, Jr., District
Judge. (0:13-cv-00261-JFA)
Submitted: September 17, 2013 Decided: October 2, 2013
Before AGEE, WYNN, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Jerome Hart, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Jerome Hart appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint. The district
court referred this case to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28
U.S.C.A. § 636(b)(1)(B) (West 2006 & Supp. 2013). The
magistrate judge recommended that relief be denied and advised
Hart that failure to file timely objections to this
recommendation could waive appellate review of a district court
order based upon the recommendation.
The timely filing of specific objections to a
magistrate judge’s recommendation is necessary to preserve
appellate review of the substance of that recommendation when
the parties have been warned of the consequences of
noncompliance. Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th
Cir. 1985); see also Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985). Hart
has waived appellate review by failing to timely file objections
after receiving proper notice. Accordingly, we affirm the
judgment of the district court.
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
