Anderson. R. Bryan Harwell, District Judge. (8:17-cv-02922-RBH)


Submitted: November 29, 2018                                 Decided: December 4, 2018


Before DUNCAN and KEENAN, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge.

George Cleveland, III, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

      George Cleveland, III, appeals the district court’s order denying his motion to alter

or amend a prior order dismissing Cleveland’s notice of removal of his state court

proceeding. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we

deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated by

the district court. Cleveland v. South Carolina, No. 8:17-cv-02922-RBH (D.S.C. May 7,

2018). 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
