PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying re- lief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting the magistrate judge's recommendation and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Deer v. Evatt, No. CA-94-597-3-18-BC (D.S.C. Aug. 18, 1995). See also Sandin v. Connor, ___ U.S. ___, 63 U.S.L.W. 4601, 4605 (U.S. June 19, 1995) (No. 93-1911) (actions that do not pose "atypical and significant hardship on the inmate in relation to the ordinary incidents of prison life" do not state a constitutional claim). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
