Applies 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (Civil Rights Act of 1871 / Section 1983 (Ku Klux Klan Act))

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion · Decided 2005-09-30

PER CURIAM:

¶1 Kelly Tention, a South Carolina prisoner, appeals the district court’s order adopting the recommendation of a magistrate judge and dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action for failure to state a claim. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Tention v. Melvin, CA-05-315-13BD (D.S.C. Apr. 6, 2005). 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.

¶2 AFFIRMED
