Lockhart, Arkansasdepartment of Correction; Marvin Evans, Warden,maximum Security Unit, Arkansasdepartment of Correction, Appellees, 963 F.2d 376 (8th Cir. 1992)

Ali Akbar Muhammad, an Arkansas inmate also known as Lee Edward Franklin, appeals from the judgment for defendants entered following a hearing before the magistrate judge¹  in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Muhammad argues on appeal that the factual findings made by the magistrate judge are clearly erroneous.

This court previously denied Muhammad's request for preparation of the entire transcript at government expense.

Without the transcript, we are precluded from conducting any meaningful review of the findings at issue. See Schmid v. United Bhd. of Carpenters & Joiners, 827 F.2d 384, 386 (8th Cir. 1987) (per curiam), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 1071 (1988). We have carefully reviewed the record before us, and we have identified no errors of law.

Accordingly, we affirm.
