Charles V. Young, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's orders denying in forma pauperis status in his suits against his former employer for employment discrimination. Finding no abuse of discretion, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the appeals. Young v. K-Mart Corp., Nos. MISC-95-16-4; MISC-95-17-4 (E.D. Va. Jan. 5, 1996). See Roberts v. United States District Court, 339 U.S. 844, 845 (1950). 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

* Judge Hall did not participate in consideration of this case. The opinion is filed by a quorum of the panel pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 46(d).
