UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 21-7374 DETRICK LAYFIELD, Petitioner - Appellant, v. BRYAN M. ANTONELLI, Respondent - Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia, at Martinsburg. Gina M. Groh, District Judge. (3:20-cv-00204-GMG) Submitted: April 1, 2022 Decided: April 20, 2022 Before NIEMEYER and AGEE, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Detrick Layfield, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Detrick Layfield appeals the district court’s orders adopting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation and dismissing without prejudice his
28 U.S.C. § 2241petition and denying his motion for reconsideration. The timely filing of specific objections to a magistrate judge’s recommendation is necessary to preserve appellate review of the substance of the recommendation when the parties have been warned that failure to object could waive appellate review. Wright v. Collins,
766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir. 1985); see also Thomas v. Arn,
474 U.S. 140, 155 (1985). We have reviewed the record and conclude that Layfield failed to file specific objections to the magistrate judge’s report that he was not denied due process during the disciplinary proceeding. Accordingly, we affirm. ∗ 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 ∗ We “may affirm the district court’s judgment for any reason supported by the record, even if it is not the basis that the district court used.” United States v. Swann,
149 F.3d 271, 277 (4th Cir. 1998). 2
