Submitted: September 29, 2009 Decided: October 2, 2009

Before NIEMEYER, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Norman Freeman, Appellant Pro Se. Barbara Murcier Bowens, Assistant United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Norman Freeman appeals the district court’s order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

relief on his complaint filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown

Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971),

and the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 2671-2680 (2006).

We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma

pauperis, we affirm the order of the district court. See

Freeman v. United States, No. 9:07-cv-03431-TLW (D.S.C. Oct. 31,

2008). 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
