PER CURIAM:
Edgar Thomas appeals the district court’s order adopting the recommendation of
the magistrate judge to dismiss Thomas’ civil action without prejudice for lack of subject
matter jurisdiction, and its order denying Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) relief. We have reviewed
the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by
the district court. Thomas v. South Carolina, No. 3:17-cv-01345-CMC (D.S.C. June 27
& July 19, 2017); see also Robinson v. Wix Filtration Corp., 599 F.3d 403, 407 (4th Cir.
2010) (reviewing Rule 59(e) denial for abuse of discretion). 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
