        PER CURIAM:

               Joseph Fuce, II, appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of

        the magistrate judge and dismissing Fuce’s civil action pursuant to the Rooker-Feldman ∗

        abstention doctrine.    We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

        Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. Fuce v. Middleman, No. 3:22-cv-03561-

        MGL (D.S.C. Feb. 7, 2023). 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

               D.C. Ct. of App. v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983); Rooker v. Fid. Tr. Co., 263 U.S.
               ∗

        413 (1923).
