PER CURIAM:

     Ephrain Reliford, Jr., appeals the district court’s order de-

nying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) 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. See Reliford v. Paige, No. CA-00-210-17BC-3 (D.S.C.

filed Mar. 30, 2001; entered Apr. 4, 2001).     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.
