Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Terry Charles Jenkins appeals the district court's orders denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint and motion to reconsider. Jenkins alleged that his rights were violated because a conversation with his attorney was videotaped by the Defendants at the Lexington County Sheriffs Department without his knowledge. The portion of the videotape at issue was approximately twenty seconds long. The district court, accepting the magistrate judge's recommendation, denied relief on Jenkins' claims. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, with regard to Jenkins' claims that the recording violated his Fourth Amendment rights and his due process rights under the Fourteenth Amendment, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Jenkins v. Lexington County Sheriff's Dep't, No. CA-00-2722 (D.S.C. Sept. 30, 2003 & Feb. 26, 2004).
Jenkins also alleged that the recording violated his Sixth Amendment right to counsel. We find this claim is without merit because the portion of the tape at issue was suppressed at Jenkins' criminal trial, the audio portion of the tape could not be discerned, and, at a post-trial hearing on the matter, neither Jenkins nor his counsel could recall anything prejudicial being discussed during the conversation. Thus, under Weatherford v. Bursey, 429 U.S. 545, 558, 97 S.Ct. 837, 51 L.Ed.2d 30 (1977), Jenkins has failed to establish a Sixth Amendment violation. Accordingly, we affirm the dismissal of this claim on the basis of the Supreme Court's opinion in Weatherford.
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
