T. Terance BRYAN, a/k/a Terrence Terell Bryan, a/k/a T. Terell Bryan, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB COMPANY, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 14-1349.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: Dec. 15, 2014.
    Decided: Dec. 19, 2014.
    T. Terance Bryan, Appellant Pro Se. Sara Theresa Eibling, Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, LLP, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.
    Before WILKINSON, AGEE, and KEENAN, Circuit Judges.
   Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

T. Terance Bryan appeals the district court’s orders dismissing this action pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 41(b) and denying his motion for reconsideration. The district court referred this case to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) (2012). The- magistrate judge recommended dismissal and advised Bryan that failure to file timely, specific objections to this recommendation could waive appellate review of a district court order based upon the recommendation.

The timely filing of specific objections to a magistrate judge’s recommendation is necessary to preserve appellate review of the substance of that recommendation when the parties have been warned of the consequences of noncompliance. Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir.1985); see also Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 106 S.Ct. 466, 88 L.Ed.2d 435 (1985). Bryan has waived appellate review by failing to file objections after receiving proper notice. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court.

We deny the motions for stay, for intervention, and to place the case in abeyance. 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.
