UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 04-1825

CURLEE SHERMAN,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

SINGLETON HEALTH CENTER,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Orangeburg. Joseph R. McCrorey, Magistrate Judge. (CA-04-1869-5)

Submitted: November 19, 2004 Decided: December 14, 2004

Before NIEMEYER, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Curlee Sherman, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Curlee Sherman appeals the magistrate judge’s order

dismissing his complaint pursuant to a pre-filing review order. We

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed on appeal in forma

pauperis, we affirm the magistrate judge’s application of the pre-

filing review order.* See Sherman v. Singleton Health Center, No.

CA-04-1869-5 (D.S.C. filed June 14, 2004; entered June 18, 2004).

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.

AFFIRMED

* We agree with the district court that Sherman has a history of filing frivolous cases, many of which resulted in meritless appeals. If Sherman continues this conduct, which wastes judicial resources, this court will consider ordering sanctions and a pre- filing injunction.
