PER CURIAM:
In these consolidated appeals, Marie Therese Assa’ad-
Faltas appeals from the district court’s judgments dismissing
her several actions against Defendants. Her claims were
referred to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 636(b)(1)(B) (2006). The magistrate judge recommended that
the district court dismiss her actions. Assa’ad-Faltas filed
objections to the magistrate judge’s recommendations, but the
district court accepted the recommendations and dismissed her
actions.
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 that failure to file specific
objections will waive appellate review. See Wright v. Collins,
766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir. 1985). We have limited our
review to the issues raised in Assa’ad-Faltas’s informal briefs,
see 4th Cir. R. 34(b), and to the extent Assa’ad-Faltas filed
specific objections to the magistrate judge’s recommendations,
we affirm the district court’s judgments. See Assa’ad-Faltas v.
Columbia, SC, No. 3:10-cv-03294-TLW (D.S.C. Aug. 3, 2011);
Assa’ad-Faltas v. Wilson, No. 3:11-cv-00278-TLW (D.S.C. July 28,
2011); Assa’ad-Faltas v. South Carolina, No. 3:11-cv-00809-TLW
(D.S.C. filed July 27, 2011; entered July 28, 2011). We
3
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
