PER CURIAM: Robert Davila appeals the district court’s order granting sum- mary judgment in favor of defendants-appellees on his 42 U.S.C.A.

§ 1983 (West Supp. 1998) complaint. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation. We conclude the district court properly found there was no issue of material fact and the defendants-appellees were entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Accordingly, we af- firm on the reasoning of the district court. Davila v. Brooks, No. CA-97-1240-18BD (D.S.C. July 17, 1998). 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
