Eric Lee Ragsdale v. Richland County Detention Center County Officers, Six Unknown Members of Richland County Council, 953 F.2d 639, 4th Cir. (1992)
2d 639
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South
Carolina, at Columbia, No. CA-89-1311, Charles E. Simons, Jr., Senior
District Judge.
Eric L. Ragsdale, appellant pro se.
David L. Morrison, Nauful & Ellis, P.A., Columbia, S.C., for appellees.
D.S.C.
AFFIRMED.
Before WIDENER, SPROUSE and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.
OPINION
PER CURIAM:
Eric Lee Ragsdale appeals the district court's order dismissing his 42 U.S.C.
1983 action. Appellant's action was twice referred to a magistrate judge
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 636(b)(1)(B). On the first referral, on a motion to
dismiss from defendant Sheriff Frank Powell or his successor in official
capacity, the magistrate judge recommended granting the motion. After
reviewing Ragsdale's timely objections to the report, the district court granted
the motion to dismiss Sheriff Powell or his successor. Our review of the record
and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate
judge discloses that the appeal from this order is without merit. We accordingly
affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Ragsdale v. Richland County Ctr.,
CA-89-1311 (D.S.C. June 14, 1990).
AFFIRMED.
