UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 97-7605

DESMOND CHARLES LAWRENCE,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

LIEUTENANT DAMON, in his individual capacity,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Columbia. Dennis W. Shedd, District Judge. (CA-97-155-3-19-BC)

Submitted: July 2, 1998 Decided: October 23, 1998

Before NIEMEYER and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges, and HALL, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Desmond Charles Lawrence, Appellant Pro Se. William Henry Davidson, II, DAVIDSON, MORRISON & LINDEMANN, P.A., Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Appellant appeals the district court’s order denying relief on

his

(West Supp. 1998) complaint. We have re-

viewed 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.

Lawrence v. Damon, No. CA-97-155-3-19-BC (D.S.C. Oct. 10, 1997). 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
