Cynthia C. Holmes, Appellant Pro Se. Mary McFarland Caskey, Mary Cothonneau Eldridge, HAYNSWORTH SINKLER BOYD, PA, Columbia, South Carolina; Andrew Lindemann, LINDEMANN, DAVIS & HUGHES, PA, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Cynthia Holmes appeals the district court’s orders accepting the recommendation

of the magistrate judge and dismissing her civil action and denying her Fed. R. Civ. P.

59(e) motion. Holmes’ action related to a state court sanctions award and a related

discovery and sanction order. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Holmes v. Becker, No.

2:17-cv-02949-BHH (D.S.C. Mar. 29, 2019 & May 23, 2019). We grant Holmes’ motions

to exceed the page limitations for the informal brief and to amend her notice of appeal to

include an appeal from the denial of the Rule 59(e) motion and deny Holmes’ motion to

correct the record and for clarification. 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.
