PER CURIAM: Marie Therese Assa’ad-Faltas appeals the district court’s order accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to deny Assa’ad-Faltas’ motion for a temporary restraining order or for a preliminary injunction. We have reviewed the record and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Assa’ad-Faltas’ motion. Roe v. Dep’t of Def., 947 F.3d 207, 219 (4th Cir. 2020) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. In re Dist. Clerk’s Off.

Operations, No. 3:21-mc-00341-RBH (D.S.C. Oct. 29, 2021). We deny as moot Assa’ad- Faltas’ motion to expedite. 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
