Thomas Louis Davis, Appellant Pro Se.

PER CURIAM:

              Thomas Louis Davis appeals the district court’s order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

relief on Davis’s civil complaint.              We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error.              The district court referred this

case     to     a   magistrate       judge      pursuant    to     28      U.S.C.A.

§ 636(b)(1)(B) (West 2006 & Supp. 2013).                The magistrate judge

recommended that relief be denied and advised Davis that failure

to file timely, specific objections to this recommendation could

waive appellate review of a district court order based upon the

recommendation.        Despite      this   warning,    Davis     failed    to    file

specific objections to the magistrate judge’s recommendation.

              The   timely       filing    of   specific    objections          to    a

magistrate      judge’s     recommendation       is   necessary     to     preserve

appellate review of the substance of that recommendation when

the     parties     have     been     warned     of   the      consequences          of

noncompliance.       Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th

Cir. 1985); see also Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985).                        Davis

has waived appellate review of his claims by failing to file

specific objections after receiving proper notice.

              Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district

court.        We dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal    contentions       are   adequately     presented   in    the     materials



                                           2
before   the   court   and   argument   would   not   aid   the   decisional

process.



                                                                    AFFIRMED
