2 PER CURIAM:

William C. Mitchell appeals the district court’s order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge, granting

the defendants summary judgment, and dismissing Mitchell’s

action with prejudice. We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court. Mitchell v. Cannon, No. 2:07-cv-03259-

PMD (D.S.C. Apr. 1, 2009). 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
