Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Charleston. Charles E. Simons, Jr., Senior District Judge. (CA-98-2890-2-6AJ) Submitted: February 24, 2000 Decided: March 3, 2000 Before MOTZ and KING, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Elwaldo R. James, Appellant Pro Se. Donna Seegars Givens, WOODS & GIVENS, L.L.P., Lexington, South Carolina; Terry B. Millar, Rock Hill, South Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Elwaldo R. James appeals the district court’s orders denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1999) complaint and on his motion filed under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e). We have reviewed the record, the district court’s opinion accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to deny § 1983 relief, and the court’s opin- ion denying the Rule 59(e) motion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See James v. City of Rock Hill, No. CA-98-2890-2-6AJ (D.S.C. Aug. 24 & Sept. 10, 1999). We deny James’ motion to appoint counsel and dis- pense 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.
