PER CURIAM: 

1Starr Dalton appeals the district court’s order 

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying 

relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint. We have 

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, 

we modify the dismissal of the action to be without prejudice 

and affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. 

Dalton v. W. Va. Div. of Corr., No. 2:08-cv-01153 (S.D.W. Va. 

Aug. 25, 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 AS MODIFIED
