Gary W. WATERS, Sheriff, Defendant-Appellee.

No. 96-6942.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Oct. 17, 1996.
Decided Oct. 25, 1996.

Curtis E. Crawford, Appellant Pro Se.

Before MURNAGHAN and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:

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 affirm the district court's order. We dispense with oral argument and deny Appellant's motion for the appointment of counsel because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
