J.D., a disabled minor, by and with his next friend; Mark E. DAVIS, Petitioners-Appellants, v. KANAWHA COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION, Respondent-Appellee, 375 F. App'x 333

Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Petitioners J.D. and Mark Davis appeal the district court’s order adopting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to grant Respondent’s

summary judgment motion on their civil action seeking to set aside a state hearing officer decision denying Davis’s request for a continuance of a due process hearing under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, 20 U.S.C.A. §§ 1400-1482 (West 2010). The district court referred this case to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) (2006). The magistrate judge recommended that Respondent’s

summary judgment motion be granted and advised Petitioners that failure to file timely and specific objections to this recommendation would waive appellate review of a district court order based upon the recommendation. Despite this warning, Petitioners failed to file objections to the magistrate judge’s recommendation and Respondent has moved to dismiss Petitioners’ appeal. The timely filing of specific 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 of the consequences of noncompliance.

Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir.1985); see also Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 106 S.Ct. 466, 88 L.Ed.2d 435 (1985). Petitioners have waived appellate review by failing to file objections after receiving proper notice. Accordingly, we grant Respondent’s motion and dismiss Petitioners’ appeal. 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. DISMISSED.
