Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Shateek   Amin   Bilal   appeals   the    district   court’s   order

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint without prejudice

for failure to exhaust administrative remedies.        We have reviewed

the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on

the reasoning of the district court.          See Bilal v. Carroll, No.

CA-02-287-5-BO (E.D.N.C. Oct. 22, 2002).         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
