Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Charlton Javon Dowling, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Charlton Javon Dowling seeks to appeal the district

court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge

and denying relief on his

(2000) complaint. We

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss

the appeal for the reasons stated by the district court. Dowling v.

South Carolina, No. 0-06-cv-01309-PMD (D.S.C. June 28, 2006). 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
