Michael Owen HARRIOT, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. UNITED STATES, United States Marshals; Unknown USM; Unknown Deputy Marshals; FBI Robert Waizenhofer, Defendants - Appellees.
Michael Owen Harriot appeals the district court's order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on Harriot's complaint filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971), and the Federal Torts Claims Act (FTCA), 28 U.S.C. §§ 1346(b), 2671-80. We agree with the district court's conclusion that Harriot's complaint was barred by the relevant statutes of limitations. Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. Harriot v. United States, No. 1:20-cv-01266-JFA, 2020 WL 4499987 (D.S.C. Aug. 5, 2020). 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
PER CURIAM:
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
