* We decline to address AkbarÂ’s claim under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000, Pub. L. No. 106-274,
Stat. 803, because this claim was not properly presented to the
district court and Akbar has not averred, much less demonstrated,
that plain error or a miscarriage of justice will result from the
failure to review it. See
Muth v. United States
, 1 F.3d 246, 250 (4th Cir. 1993). 2 Karim Abdul Akbar, Appellant Pro Se. John Payne Scherer, II,
Assistant Attorney General, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellees.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM
Karim Abdul Akbar appeals the district court§ 1983 (2000) complaint. We have reviewed the record and the district courtÂ’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. * Akbar v. Director of North Carolina Prisons , No. CA-98-361-5-F (E.D.N.C. filed Mar. 27, 2002; entered Mar. 28, 2). 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
