See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Edward   Leon   Muldrow   appeals   the   district   court’s   order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint.      We have reviewed

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

grant of summary judgment for the reasons stated by the district

court.   We conclude that the district court did not abuse its

discretion in denying the Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion.        Brown v.

French, 

, 310 (4th Cir. 1998). See Muldrow v. Eagleton,

No. CA-02-3294-22BC-3 (D.S.C. May 30, 2003; July 7, 2003).            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.
