ORDER AND JUDGMENT* 

Before SEYMOUR, Chief Judge, KELLY, and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.** 


Mr. Houston, an inmate appearing pro se, appeals from the dismissal of his civil rights complaint, 42 U.S.C. § 1983, and the denial of his subsequent Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion. We affirm for substantially the same reasons contained in the magistrate judge's recommendation, I R. doc. 6, adopted by the district court, I R. doc. 9.

AFFIRMED. The mandate shall issue forthwith.

 *

This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. This court generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3

 **

After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this three-judge panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not be of material assistance in the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The cause is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument
