Haywood Williams, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order dismissing his

42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1994) complaint. The district court assessed a

filing fee in accordance with 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915(b)(1)(A) (West

1994 & Supp. 1997), and dismissed the case without prejudice when

Appellant failed to comply with the fee order. Finding no abuse of
discretion, we affirm the district court's order. We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
