RANDY WILLIFORD,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

WILLIAM D. CATOE; RALPH S. BEARDSLEY,

Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Greenville. Joseph F. Anderson, Jr., District Judge. (CA-96-1699-17AK, CA-96-1700-17AK)

Submitted: January 9, 1997 Decided: January 23, 1997

Before HALL and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Randy Williford, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Appellant, a South Carolina inmate, appeals the district

court's order denying relief on his two

(1994)

complaints under

(d) (1994), amended by Prison Litigation Reform Act,

Stat. 1321 (1996).

We have reviewed the record and the district court's order accept-

ing the magistrate judge's recommendation and find that this appeal

is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the district court. Williford v. Catoe, Nos. CA-96-1699-17AK;

CA-96-1700-17AK (D.S.C. July 12, 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.

DISMISSED
