OPINION
PER CURIAM:


1
Gary L. Young appeals the district court's order dismissing this action for back benefits payments under the Social Security Act.   Appellant's action was referred to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B).   The magistrate judge recommended that relief be denied and advised appellant that the failure to file timely objections to this recommendation could waive appellate review of a district court order based upon the recommendation.   Despite this warning, appellant failed to object to the magistrate judge's recommendation.


2
This Court has held that the timely filing of objections to a magistrate judge's recommendation is necessary to preserve appellate review of the substance of that recommendation where the parties have been warned that failure to object will waive appellate review.   Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 846 (4th Cir.1985) (quoting  Carr v. Hutto, 737 F.2d 433, 434 (4th Cir.1984), cert. denied, 474 U.S. 1019 (1985)).   See generally United States v. Schronce, 727 F.2d 91 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 467 U.S. 1208 (1984).   Appellant has waived appellate review by failing to file objections after receiving proper notice.   We accordingly affirm the judgment of the district court.*  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.


3
AFFIRMED.



*
 We also grant Appellee's motion to dismiss this appeal--the district court's ruling that Young did not make a showing of cause to justify an extension of time to file his objections was not an abuse of discretion
