2 PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the district court's judgment, pursuant to
a jury verdict, that she recover nothing in her
42 U.S.C. § 1983(1994) action. The record does not contain a transcript of the
trial. Appellant has the burden of including in the record on
appeal a transcript of all parts of the proceedings material to the issues raised on appeal. Fed. R. App. P. 10(b)(2); 4th Cir. Local
R. 10(c). Appellants proceeding on appeal in forma pauperis are
entitled to transcripts at government expense only in certain
circumstances.
28 U.S.C. § 753(f) (1994). By failing to produce a transcript or to qualify for the production of a transcript at
government expense, Appellant has waived review of the issues on
appeal which depend upon the transcript to show error. Powell v. Estelle,
959 F.2d 22, 26 (5th Cir.), cert. denied,
506 U.S. 1025(1992); Keller v. Prince George's Co.,
827 F.2d 952, 954 n.1 (4th
Cir. 1987). We have reviewed the record before the court and find
no reversible error. We therefore affirm the district court's order
entering judgment for Appellees. 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 deci-
sional process.
AFFIRMED
