PER CURIAM:

     Marvin     Jerome   Damon   appeals    the   district    court’s    order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

relief on his complaint filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown

Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971),

and the magistrate judge’s order denying discovery.                   We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.               Accordingly,

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.                 Damon

v. Masters, No. 1:14-cv-26833 (S.D. W. Va. Aug. 25, 2015; Sept.

18, 2015).      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
