Devon Sutherland, Demetrice Murray, and Ira Wayne Madison appeal from the district court’s order granting summary judgment to the defendant prison officials in their 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action challenging the validity and enforcement of the prison’s grooming policy. We deny Sutherland’s motion to place this case in abeyance pending a decision by this court in an appeal raising similar claims and deny his motion for default. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Sutherland v. Angelone, No. 7:02-cv-00477-JCT, 2006 WL 733976 (W.D.Va. Mar. 21, 2006). *293 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.
