PER CURIAM:

Sam Frederick appeals the district court’s order accepting 

the magistrate judge’s recommendation to grant the United States 

summary judgment on Frederick’s malpractice action, brought 

pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C.A. §§ 1346, 

2671–2680 (West 2006 & Supp. 2016). We have reviewed the record 

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the 

district court’s judgment. Frederick v. United States, No. 

9:15-cv-02699-MGL (D.S.C. Apr. 4, 2016). 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
