PER CURIAM:

              Patricia A. Frierson appeals the district court’s order

adopting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation and

dismissing Frierson’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action for failure to

prosecute and for noncompliance with court orders.              A plaintiff’s

failure to prosecute or to comply with the federal procedural rules

or an order of the court may warrant involuntary dismissal.                 Fed.

R. Civ. P. 41(b).       We review a district court’s dismissal under

Rule 41(b) for abuse of discretion.           Ballard v. Carlson, 882 F.2d

93, 95-96 (4th Cir. 1989).      We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by

the district court.      See Frierson v. Parke, No. 3:06-cv-01892-JFA

(D.S.C. July 12, 2007). We 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
