Applies 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (Civil Rights Act of 1871 / Section 1983 (Ku Klux Klan Act)) · 42 U.S.C. § 2000C

Relies on Lovelace v. Lee

Decided 2008-04-24

PER CURIAM:

¶1Marion Beasley, Jr., appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm substantially for the reasons stated by the district court. Beasley v. Wood, No. 1:05-cv-00850-NCT (M.D.N.C. Sept. 21, 2007). Moreover, although not specifically addressed by the district court, Beasley’s claim under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, Pub. L. No. 106-274, 114 Stat. 804, 42 U.S.C. § 2000cc-1 (a) (2000) (“RLUIPA”), may be dismissed for the same reasons as his § 1983 claim. See Lovelace v. Lee, 472 F.3d 174, 185-86 (4th Cir.2006). 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.
