No. 21-1092

Decided: July 22, 2021

Before WILKINSON, AGEE, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Marie Therese Assa'ad-Faltas, Appellant Pro Se.

Marie Therese Assa'ad-Faltas appeals the district court's order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing without prejudice, after a review pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915, Assa'ad-Faltas’ 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action.^* We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Assa'ad-Faltas v. McMaster, No. 3:20-cv-01809-TLW, 2020 WL 7425868 (D.S.C. Dec. 18, 2020). We deny Assa'ad-Faltas’ motion to place this appeal in abeyance. 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
