PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on
his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. We have reviewed the record
and the district court's opinion accepting the magistrate judge's
recommendation and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm
on the reasoning of the district court. Ford v. Gaston, No. CA-95-
1299-3-18BC (D.S.C. Sept. 27, 1996). 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 deci-
sional process.
AFFIRMED
