United States of America, Appellee, v. John Patterson, Appellant, 802 F.2d 452 (4th Cir. 1986)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 802 F.2d 452 (4th Cir. 1986) Submitted April 18, 1986. Decided Sept. 30, 1986

John Patterson, appellant pro se.

Edward T. Brady, Assistant United States Attorney, for appellee.

E.D.N.C.

DISMISSED.

Before WIDENER, PHILLIPS and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that an appeal from its order refusing post-conviction relief would be without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument, deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Patterson, CR 81-15-01-CR-3 and C/A 85-47-CIV-3, (E.D.N.C., July 14, 1985).

DISMISSED.
