PER CURIAM:

Wade Stepney, Jr. appeals the district court’s orders

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and 

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint without 

prejudice for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. We 

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. 

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. See Stepney v. Beckwith, No. 8:09-cv-00771-MBS (D.S.C. 

Jan. 21, 2010; May 12, 2009). We dispense with oral argument 

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented 

in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the 

decisional process.

AFFIRMED
