Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM:

Appellant appeals the district court's orders denying relief

on his

(1994) complaints. We have reviewed the records and the district court's opinions accepting the magistrate

judge's recommendations and find that the complaints, and these

appeals, are frivolous. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of

the district court. Zulu X v. Moore, No. CA-95-1605-6-3AK; X v.

Doe, No. CA-95-1199-CV-6-3AK (D.S.C. Feb. 28 & Mar. 13, 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
