2 PER CURIAM:

In No. 02-6600, Darnell A. Toles appeals the district court’s

order granting summary judgment to the defendant prison officials

in his

42 U.S.C. § 1983

(2000) action attacking enforcement of the

prison’s grooming policy. In No. 02-6599, the prison officials

cross-appealed, arguing the district court should have dismissed

Toles’ complaint on other grounds. In No. 02-6600, we affirm the

district court’s order for the reasons stated by the district

court. See Toles v. Young, No. CA-00-210 (W.D. Va. Mar. 6, 2002).

We dismiss the cross-appeal, No. 02-6599, for lack of standing.

See Deposit Guar. Nat’l Bank v. Roper,

445 U.S. 326, 333-34

(1980);

HCA Health Servs. of Va. v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co.,

957 F.2d 120, 123

(4th Cir. 1992). 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.

No. 02-6599 - DISMISSED

No. 02-6600 - AFFIRMED
