Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

          EuGene    Clowers   appeals   the   district   court’s   order

rejecting the recommendation of the magistrate judge to dismiss

Clowers’ 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action for failure to prosecute

but ultimately denying relief on Clowers’ complaint.            We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.        Accordingly, we

affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.         Clowers v.

Ozmint, No. 2:06-cv-02530-MBS (D.S.C. filed Mar. 28, 2008; entered

Mar. 31, 2008).    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
