PER CURIAM:

     John Paul Turner appeals the district court's orders dismiss-

ing this action without prejudice for failure to comply with a pre-

filing injunction or to pay the filing fee and denying his motion

for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the district

court's opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Turner v. United
States, No. CA-98-35-R (W.D. Va. Jan. 14, and Feb. 18, 1998). We

deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and 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
