UNPUBLISHED
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Anderson. Henry M. Herlong, Jr., Senior District Judge. (8:11-cv-00144-HMH)
Before MOTZ, DUNCAN, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Judy White and Gary White, Appellants Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
Judy and Gary White appeal the district court's orders accepting the magistrate judge's recommendation and denying emergency relief, dismissing without prejudice their civil complaint for failure to prosecute under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41, and denying reconsideration. We review a district court's dismissal under Rule 41(b) for abuse of discretion. Ballard v. Carlson, 882 F.2d 93, 95-96 (4th Cir. 1989). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. White v. Mackelburg, No. 8:11-cv-00144-HMH (D.S.C. March 29, 2011; May 10, 2011; May 26, 2011; June 20, 2011; July 6, 2011). 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.
To the extent that the Whites appeal the denial of temporary restraining orders, such orders are generally not appealable. See Virginia v. Tenneco, Inc., 538 F.2d 1026, 1029-30 (4th Cir. 1976). We therefore dismiss the appeal insofar as they are appealing the denial of temporary restraining orders.
AFFIRMED
