See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his motion for a preliminary injunction or a temporary restraining order. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Crooks v. Moore, No. CA-94-3242-2-17AJ (D.S.C. Feb. 15, 1996). We also deny Appellant's motion for consolidation. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten- tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
