PER CURIAM:
Shadreck Kitayatuthelezi appeals the district court’s order
accepting a magistrate judge’s recommendation to deny relief on his
42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint. Although the
district court noted that Kitayatuthelezi failed to file timely
objections to the magistrate judge’s recommendation, it found
nonetheless, that Kitayatuthelezi’s claims were without merit. 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. See
Kitayatuthelezi v. Catoe, No. CA-00-1084-4-12 (D.S.C. May 11,
2001). 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.
AFFIRMED
