Clifford Liahben, Appellant Pro Se.

                                 2
PER CURIAM:

                Clifford    Liahben   appeals      the    district      court’s    order

adopting        the   recommendation        of    the     magistrate       judge     and

dismissing as frivolous Liahben’s action pursuant to 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983 (2006), Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau

of Narcotics, 
403 U.S. 388
(1971), and the civil RICO statute. *

We   have       reviewed    the   record    and    find    no    reversible       error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court.      Liahben v. Osteen, No. 1:09-cv-00226-NCT-PTS (M.D.N.C.

June 29, 2009).             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




      *
       “Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations” Act, 18
U.S.C. § 1964 (2006).
