Before NIEMEYER, WILLIAMS, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Vance Marcel Gibson, Appellant Pro Se. Lynne P. Klauer, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Vance Marcel Gibson appeals the district court’s order

accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to dismiss without

prejudice Gibson’s motion for the return of seized property. We

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court. See Gibson v. United States, No. 1:06-cv-00461-WLO

(M.D.N.C. July 26, 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.

AFFIRMED
