Pierre A. Byrd, Appellant Pro Se. Barbara Murcier Bowens, Assistant United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Pierre A. Byrd, a federal prisoner, appeals the

district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the

magistrate judge and denying relief on his

(West 2006 & Supp. 2011) petition. We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. Byrd v. Rivera, No. 4:10-

cv-01632-CMC (D.S.C. Aug. 25, 2011). 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
