PER CURIAM:

Wesley Edward Smith, III, appeals the magistrate judge’s

order dismissing his employment discrimination claims and granting

summary judgment in favor of Pepsi Bottling Group on their

counterclaim for conversion.* We have reviewed the record and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the magistrate judge. See Smith v. Pepsi Bottling Group, No.

2:06-cv-00040 (D.S.C. Aug. 31, 2007). Additionally, we deny

Smith’s motions for issuance of subpoenas and for preparation of

transcripts at government expense. 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
