Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Paul B. Goist appeals the district court’s orders accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on his complaint filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), and denying his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Goist v. Samuels, No. 9:14-cv-04036-RMG (D.S.C. July 22, 2015 & Aug. 25, 2015). 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
