United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Sept. 20, 1996
Decided Oct. 2, 1996

Daughton W. Lacey, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.

E.D.Va.

DISMISSED.

Before NIEMEYER, HAMILTON, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant appeals the district court's order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. The district court assessed a filing fee in accordance with Evans v. Croom, 650 F.2d 521 (4th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 454 U.S. 1153 (1982), and dismissed the case without prejudice when Appellant failed to comply with the fee order. Finding no abuse of discretion, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the 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
