We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis- trict court. Dennis v. South Carolina Dep’t of Corrections, No. CA-00-3676-3-20BC (D.S.C.
