2 PER CURIAM:

Dennis A. Givens appeals the district court’s orders

accepting the recommendations of the magistrate judge and

dismissing Givens’ complaint in part and granting summary

judgment in part. We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court. Givens v. Weaver, No. 5:12-cv-00145-FPS-

JES (N.D.W. Va. July 1 & Aug. 27, 2014). We deny Givens’ motion

for sanctions and to strike. We dispense with oral argument

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented

in the materials before this court and argument would not aid

the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
