Johnathan Lee X Smith, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's orders granting

his motion to dismiss and dismissing without prejudice these

(1994) actions. We have reviewed the records and the magistrate judge's opinions and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the

appeals on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. Smith v. Taylor, No. CA-95-1032-R, Smith v. Hayes, No. CA-95-672 (E.D. Va. Apr. 2 &

11, 1996). 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
