Grady Edward Lloyd, Appellant Pro Se. Edgar Lloyd Willcox, II, WILLCOX, BUYCK & WILLIAMS, PA, Florence, South Carolina, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Grady Edward Lloyd appeals from 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 the district court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. (D.S.C. May 16, See Lloyd v. Eagleton, No. 9:05-cv-02314-DCN However, because Lloyd's action was

2006).

dismissed upon a grant of summary judgment to the Defendants, we vacate the district court's order to the extent it assessed a strike for purposes of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) (2000). 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.
