Submitted Jan. 18, 1996.
Decided Feb. 15, 1996.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South

AFFIRMED.
Before HAMILTON and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN,
Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

Appellant appeals from the district court's orders dismissing his two

consolidated 42 U.S.C. 1983 (1988) complaints. Appellant's cases were


referred to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 636(b)(1)(B) (1988). The
magistrate judge recommended that relief be denied and advised Appellant that
failure to file timely objections to the recommendations could waive appellate
review of the district court orders based upon the recommendations. Despite
this warning, Appellant failed to object to the magistrate judge's
recommendations.
The timely filing of objections to a magistrate judge's recommendation is
necessary to preserve appellate review of the substance of that recommendation
when the parties have been warned that failure to object will waive appellate
review. Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir.1985). See generally
Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985). Appellant has waived appellate review by
failing to file objections after receiving proper notice. Accordingly, we affirm
the judgment of the district court. We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
