Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
South Carolina, at Greenville. Henry M. Herlong, Jr., District
Judge. (6:08-cv-03864-HMH)
Submitted: February 26, 2009 Decided: March 9, 2009
Before NIEMEYER, MICHAEL, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Charles W. Penland, Sr., Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Penland Financial Services, Inc., and Charles W.
Penland, Sr., appeal the district court’s order accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing without
prejudice the civil action Penland filed on behalf of himself
and Penland Financial Services, Inc., for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction. On appeal, Penland has failed to raise any
arguments relevant to the district court’s reasoning for
dismissing the action; thus, those claims have been abandoned.
Edwards v. City of Goldsboro, 178 F.3d 231, 241 n.6 (4th Cir.
1999); see 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Accordingly, we affirm the
decision of the district court. 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
