PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order denying relief on
his 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. Dehoney v. Beasley, No. CA-
94-3512-4-21BE (D.S.C. Apr. 7, 1997). We deny Appellant's motion to

stay disposition of this appeal and his request for an injunction
to prevent the Department of Corrections from interfering with his

access to the courts. We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.
