PER CURIAM:

Reginald Evans appeals the district court’s order accepting 

the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his 

civil complaint. The magistrate judge recommended that relief 

be denied and advised Evans that failure to file timely 

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. United 

States v. Midgette, 478 F.3d 616, 621-22 (4th Cir. 2007). Evans

has waived appellate review by failing to file specific 

objections after receiving proper notice. Accordingly, we 

affirm the judgment of the district court.

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
