PER CURIAM:


OPINION

Appellant appeals from the district court's order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint and denying his motions for appointment of counsel and amendment of his complaint. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge discloses no abuse of discretion and that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Woods v. South Carolina Dep't of Corrections, No. CA-92-2696-2-17BC (D.S.C. Aug. 31, 1993). 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.

AFFIRMED.
