PER CURIAM:

     Jasper Napoleon Buchanan appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000) com-

plaint. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation and find no

reversible error.     Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See Buchanan v. Catoe, No. CA-99-3185-08BD (D.S.C.

Aug. 18, 2000).     We deny Buchanan’s motion to proceed under the

Prison Litigation Reform Act and 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
