DOWLING v. FBOP FBOP FBOP (2021)

Vernon B. Dowling appeals the district court's orders accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his claims pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 1346(b), 2671-2680, for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, and denying reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Dowling v. United States, No. 0:16-cv-03468-DCN (D.S.C. Oct. 24, 2018 & June 18, 2019). We also deny Dowling's pending motions to appoint counsel, to seal a motion for appointment of counsel, for a transcript at government expense, to stay the appeal, to provide the Defendants’ insurance information, and to withdraw his consent to proceed under the Prison Litigation Reform Act. 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.
