PER CURIAM:
Joana Deshield appeals from the district court’s order
granting summary judgment for the Defendant in her employment
discrimination action. Deshield’s case was referred to a
magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) (1994).
The magistrate judge recommended that relief be denied and
advised Deshield that failure to file timely objections to the
recommendation 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. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985).
Deshield has waived appellate review by failing to file
objections after receiving proper notice. Accordingly, we deny
Deshield’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis and affirm.
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
