Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's order granting the Defendants' motion for summary judgment in Appellant's action alleging improper interference with his mail. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommenda- tion of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accord- ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Mattison v. Brown, No. CA-94-2610-9-6JC (D.S.C. Nov. 19, 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
