PER CURIAM:

Plaintiffs John C. Nelums and Delmarshi Nelums appeal the district court’s order 

adopting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to dismiss without prejudice, pursuant to 

28 U.S.C. § 1915 review, Plaintiffs’ complaint seeking a temporary restraining order and 

preliminary injunction against Defendants. We have reviewed the record and find no 

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. Nelums v. Hutchens 

Law Firm, No. 3:24-cv-02427-JFA (D.S.C. July 16, 2024). 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
