PER CURIAM:

                 In these consolidated appeals, Peder Halvorson appeals

the district court’s judgments adopting the magistrate judge’s

report and recommendations and dismissing his complaints.                                      The

district court referred the cases to a magistrate judge pursuant

to    28    U.S.C.      §     636(b)(1)(B)       (2012).         The    magistrate        judge

recommended         that      the    complaints       be    dismissed    for    failing         to

state a claim, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(b)(ii) (2012).

The magistrate judge advised Halvorson that the failure to file

timely objections to the reports could waive appellate review of

a district court order based upon the 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.     Arm,    474    U.S.    140    (1985).

Halvorson         has    waived       appellate       review     by    failing       to    file

objections          after     receiving        proper      notice.      Accordingly,            we

dismiss the appeal.                 We dispense with oral argument because the

facts      and    legal       contentions       are   adequately       presented      in       the




                                                 4
materials   before   this   court   and   argument   would   not    aid   the

decisional process.

                                                                   DISMISSED
