Di Lauro, Appellant Pro Se. Barbara Dickerson Kocher, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Peter J. Di Lauro appeals the district court’s order accepting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation and granting summary judgment in favor of the Commissioner in this action chal- lenging the Commissioner’s decision denying Di Lauro’s application for disability insurance benefits. 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 af- firm on the reasoning of the district court. See Di Lauro v. Apfel, No. CA-97-90-4-BO (E.D.N.C. Sept. 29, 1998). 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 2
