Robert Smalls, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Robert Smalls appeals the district court’s order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we deny Smalls’ motion for appointment of counsel and affirm for

the reasons stated by the district court. Smalls v. Patterson,

No. 9:07-cv-03095-RBH (D.S.C. July 22, 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
