Vance J. Bettis, GIGNILLIAT, SAVITZ & BETTIS, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellees.

D.S.C.

AFFIRMED.

Before MURNAGHAN and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant appeals from the district court's order adopting the report and recommendation of the magistrate judge and granting summary judgment in favor of the Defendants on the grounds that Appellant's claims are barred by the principles of res judicata. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion adopting the report and recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Weinstein v. University of South Carolina, No. CA-94-321-3-23BC (D.S.C. Mar. 18, 1996). 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
