Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Thomas A. Nordbrok, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
Thomas A. Nordbrok appeals the district court’s order
dismissing his
42 U.S.C. § 1983(2012) complaint without prejudice
for failure to comply with a court order. Rule 41(b) of the
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure permits a district court to
dismiss an action based on a plaintiff’s failure to comply with
any order. Where a litigant has ignored a district court’s express
warning that noncompliance will result in dismissal, it is
appropriate for the court to dismiss the case. See Ballard v.
Carlson,
882 F.2d 93, 95–96 (4th Cir. 1989). Based on our review
of the record in this case, we find no reversible error. We
therefore affirm the district court’s order. Nordbrok v. Dep’t of
Corr., No. 2:14-cv-00533-AWA-DEM (E.D. Va. Apr. 20, 2015). 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.
