PER CURIAM:
Malcolm Muhammad appeals the district court’s orders:
accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
granting in part and denying in part Defendants’ motion for
summary judgment; and entering judgment of $2000 for Muhammad in
accordance with a jury verdict in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006)
action. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm. We deny the motions for
transfer and for a transcript and 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
