PER CURIAM:

          Charles     Tyson   appeals    the   district   court’s   order

modifying the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing

Tyson’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint without prejudice for

failure to exhaust administrative remedies.*       We have reviewed the

record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court. See Tyson v. Ozmint, No. 6:06-cv-

00385 (D.S.C. Mar. 1, 2007).      We deny as moot Tyson’s motions to

consolidate and to stay the case.       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

     *
      To the extent Tyson seeks to appeal the district court’s
separate order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge
and denying his motion for a preliminary injunction or temporary
restraining order, we note that Tyson’s notice of appeal was not
timely filed and he failed to timely obtain a reopening of the
appeal period. See Browder v. Dir., Dep’t of Corr., 434 U.S. 257,
264 (1978); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A), (a)(6). We therefore lack
jurisdiction to review that order.
