2 PER CURIAM:

Reed Anthony Kevin Wright appeals the district court’s order accepting the

recommendation of the magistrate judge and granting summary judgment to Defendants

on Wright’s third amended complaint alleging false arrest and malicious prosecution, in

violation of

42 U.S.C. § 1983

, and malicious prosecution, in violation of South Carolina

law. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm

for the reasons stated by the district court. Wright v. Sheppard-Oswald, No. 6:14-cv-

04646-TMC (D.S.C. Mar. 9 & 10, 2017). 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
