Thomas Bradford WATERS, a/k/a Thomas Waters, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. John STEWART, Lake City Police Department; Mark Strickland, Lake City Police Department; Sergeant Anthony Backhuss, Lake City Police Department; Jody Cooper, Lake City Police Department, Defendants - Appellees, A.T.F. Agent Alan C. Townsend; John Doe, #1, Florence County E.M.S. Worker; John Doe, #2, Florence County E.M.S. Worker, Defendants.
Thomas Bradford Waters appeals the district court's orders accepting the recommendations of the magistrate judge and granting Defendants summary judgment in Waters’ 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) action. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Waters v. Stewart, No. 4:15-cv-04143-RBH-TER, 2018 WL 4560745, 2019 WL 1146685 (D.S.C. Sept. 24, 2018; Dec. 20, 2018; Mar. 13, 2019). We grant Waters’ motion to amend his informal brief, but deny his motion for the appointment of counsel. 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.
