UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-1539

THEODORE JUSTICE,

Plaintiff – Appellant,

v.

ROBERT H. HOBGOOD, JR., Senior Resident Superior Court Judge in the Ninth Judicial District, in his individual and official capacity,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. W. Earl Britt, Senior District Judge. (5:13-cv-00677-BR)

Submitted: November 18, 2014 Decided: November 20, 2014

Before NIEMEYER, MOTZ, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Theodore Justice, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Theodore Justice seeks to appeal the district court’s

order reviewing the magistrate judge’s determination and denying

Justice’s application to proceed in forma pauperis. Denial of

in forma pauperis status is reviewed for abuse of discretion.

See Roberts v. United States Dist. Ct.,

(1950). A review of the record indicates that the district

court did not abuse its discretion. Accordingly, we dismiss the

appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Justice v.

Hobgood, No. 5:13-cv-00677-BR (E.D.N.C. May 27, 2014). We deny

leave to proceed in forma pauperis. We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before this court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
