PER CURIAM:

            Franklin C. Reaves appeals the district court’s order

denying his motions for a stay and to alter or amend the court’s

prior order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge

and dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) civil rights action*

and accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

granting    the    motions   for     attorney’s   fees    filed    by   several

Defendants.       We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.     Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district court.      Reaves v. Richardson, No. 4:09-cv-00820-TLW-SVH

(D.S.C. Nov. 3, 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




    *
       Because Reaves filed his motion for reconsideration of the
court’s   order   dismissing  his   § 1983   action  within   the
twenty-eight-day time limit for motions under Fed. R. Civ. P.
59(e), we treat the motion as a Rule 59(e) motion to alter or
amend judgment.    Katyle v. Penn Nat’l Gaming, Inc., 

, 471 n.4 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 

 (2011).
