PER CURIAM:

          George     Cleveland     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,      and   a

subsequent order denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion to

alter or amend judgment.         We have reviewed the record and find

no reversible error.        Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons

stated by the district court.            Cleveland v. Abernathy, No. 8:08-

cv-00517-HMH    (D.S.C.   Mar.     24,    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
