Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).




PER CURIAM:

     Appellants appeal from the district court's order dismissing
their civil action as barred. We have reviewed the record and the

district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the mag-

istrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm

on the reasoning of the district court. Tucker v. Department of the
Navy, No. CA-95-2234-18AJ (D.S.C. Mar. 6, 1996). We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
