Roy Franklin Echols, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Linwood Theodore Wells, Jr., Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Roy Franklin Echols, Jr., appeals the district court’s

order denying his motion to refund the appellate filing fee paid in

a prior appeal. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district court. See Echols v. Angelone, No. CA-01-155-3-REP (E.D.

Va. June 30, 2005). We grant permission to proceed in forma

pauperis in this appeal and 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.
