(3:15-cv-03523-CMC) Submitted: September 7, 2017 Decided: September 20, 2017 Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and AGEE, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Rhonda Meisner, Appellant Pro Se. Ellison F. McCoy, JACKSON LEWIS PC, Greenville, South Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: Rhonda Meisner appeals the district court’s orders accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying her motion to remand, denying her motion to recuse and for reconsideration, accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss, denying her motion to alter or amend the judgment, and taxing costs. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we grant Meisner’s motion to file a corrected informal opening brief and affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Meisner v. ZymoGenetics, Inc., No. 3:15cv-03523-CMC (D.S.C. Apr. 7, 2016; June 1, 2016; July 27, 2016; Sept. 15, 2016 & Nov. 28, 2016). 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 3
