Judge. (CA-96-2825-3-17BC)


Submitted:   February 13, 1997        Decided:     February 25, 1997

Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Jo Ann Rehfuss, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on

her 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. Rehfuss v. South Carolina
Dep't of Social Servs., No. CA-96-2825-3-17BC (D.S.C. Oct. 8,

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 decisional process.




                                                           AFFIRMED
