PER CURIAM:

      Keith Aaron Vann appeals the district court’s order accepting the magistrate

judge’s recommendation to grant Defendants summary judgment on Vann’s negligence

claim, brought pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1346(b)(1) (2012),

and the district court’s order denying Vann’s Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion to alter or

amend judgment.      We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. See Vann v. United States, No. 1:17-

cv-01149-HMH (D.S.C. Oct. 31, 2017 & Nov. 30, 2017).             We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                             AFFIRMED
