PER CURIAM:

            Kendrick V. Alston appeals the district court’s order

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying

relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint and the court’s

order denying discovery.        We have reviewed the record and find

no reversible error.         Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons

stated by the district court.           Alston v. Winthrop Univ. Police

Dep’t, No. 8:09-cv-01130-RMG (D.S.C. Dec. 16, 2010; Jan. 14,

2011).     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
