Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
South Carolina, at Charleston. G. Ross Anderson, Jr., Senior
District Judge. (9:13-cv-00382-GRA)
Submitted: August 29, 2013 Decided: September 4, 2013
Before DUNCAN, AGEE, and KEENAN, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Thomas Louis Davis, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Thomas Louis Davis appeals the district court’s order
accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying
relief on Davis’s civil complaint. We have reviewed the record
and find no reversible error. The district court referred this
case to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A.
§ 636(b)(1)(B) (West 2006 & Supp. 2013). The magistrate judge
recommended that relief be denied and advised Davis that failure
to file timely, specific objections to this recommendation could
waive appellate review of a district court order based upon the
recommendation. Despite this warning, Davis failed to file
specific objections to the magistrate judge’s recommendation.
The timely filing of specific objections to a
magistrate judge’s recommendation is necessary to preserve
appellate review of the substance of that recommendation when
the parties have been warned of the consequences of
noncompliance. Wright v. Collins,
766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th
Cir. 1985); see also Thomas v. Arn,
474 U.S. 140 (1985). Davis
has waived appellate review of his claims by failing to file
specific objections after receiving proper notice.
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district
court. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
2
before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
