PER CURIAM:
Sameer Mohamed Elyas appeals the district court’s orders dismissing his
42 U.S.C. § 1983complaints for failure to comply with the court’s orders. In each case, Elyas failed
to notify the court of his change in address following his release from the custody of the
Virginia Department of Corrections. The district court therefore dismissed Elyas’
complaints without prejudice, finding that dismissal was necessary to manage the court’s
docket. We conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion. Accordingly, we
affirm the district court’s orders. Elyas v. Chan, No. 1:23-cv-1212-MSN-IDD (E.D. Va.,
Sept. 18, 2024); Elyas v. Foster, No. 1:23-cv-01091-MSN-WEF (E.D. Va., Sept. 18, 2024);
Elyas v. Sams, No. 1:24-cv-00889-MSN-WBP (E.D. Va., Sept. 18, 2024); Elyas v. Thomas,
No. 1:24-cv-00325-MSN-WEF (E.D. Va., Sept. 18, 2024); Elyas v. Sanchez, No. 1:23-cv-
00784-MSN-IDD (E.D. Va., Sept. 18, 2024). 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.
