After a hearing, the District Court 1 gave thorough consid *699 eration to each of Path’s claims, granted the pending motions to dismiss, denied Path’s motion for default judgment, and dismissed his complaint. We have carefully reviewed the pleadings, the report and recommendation, the District Court’s order, and the briefs in this matter, and we find no basis for reversal. Accordingly, we affirm.
