UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 17-2427

MATTHEW HEATH,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

v.

COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON; GLENN F. MCCONNELL, President of the College of Charleston; MATT ROBERTS, Director of Athletics, both in their official and individual capacities,

Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Charleston. Patrick Michael Duffy, Senior District Judge. (2:17-cv-01792-PMD-JDA)

Submitted: July 31, 2018 Decided: August 17, 2018

Before KING, AGEE, and HARRIS, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Allan R. Holmes, Cheryl H. Ledbetter, Rebecca J. Wolfe, GIBBS & HOLMES, Charleston, South Carolina, for Appellant. Eugene H. Matthews, RICHARDSON PLOWDEN & ROBINSON, P.A., Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Matthew Heath appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of

the magistrate judge and denying his motion for a preliminary injunction in this action

filed pursuant to

(2012). Upon review, we conclude that the district

court did not abuse its discretion in denying Heath’s motion. See Di Biase v. SPX Corp.,

(4th Cir. 2017) (district court’s denial of a motion for a preliminary

injunction is reviewable for abuse of discretion); Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc.,

(2008) (outlining standard for a preliminary injunction). Accordingly, we

affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Heath v. College of Charleston, No.

2:17-cv-01792-PMD-JDA (D.S.C. Nov. 14, 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
