PER CURIAM:
Patrick O’Neal Harris appeals the district court’s order accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on Harris’s complaint filed
pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S.
388 (1971), the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), 28 U.S.C. §§ 1346, 2671-2680, and other
causes of action not relevant to this appeal. We have reviewed the record, as well as the
issues raised in Harris’s informal brief, and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm the district court’s judgment. Harris v. Fed. Bureau of Prisons, No. 2:23-cv-06282-
DCC (D.S.C. Sep. 4, 2025). 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
