PER CURIAM:
In No. 12-7947, federal prisoner Darryl L. Cook
appeals the district court’s orders accepting the
recommendations of the magistrate judge and denying relief in an
action claiming several violations of the Federal Tort Claims
Act (FTCA). In No. 12-7980, Cook appeals the district court’s
order adopting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
dismissing as duplicative a second action brought pursuant to
the FTCA. We have reviewed the records and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
district court. Cook v. United States, Nos. 0:11-cv-00320-RMG;
0:12-cv-00216-MGL (D.S.C. Feb. 6, 2012; Nov. 1 & 7, 2012). We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
