PER CURIAM:
Clarence B. Jenkins, Jr., appeals the district court’s order accepting the magistrate
judge’s recommendation and dismissing Jenkins’s employment-related action without
prejudice and without issuance and service of process.* See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B).
Jenkins also appeals the district court’s text order denying his motions for reconsideration.
We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the
district court’s orders. Jenkins v. Off. of S.C. Governor, No. 3:25-cv-07256-JDA (D.S.C.
Dec. 8 & 22, 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
* The order is final and appealable because the district court did not grant Jenkins
leave to amend his complaint. See Britt v. DeJoy, 45 F.4th 790, 796 (4th Cir. 2022) (en
banc) (order).
