Troussant Delano Lett, Petitioner-appellant, v. Sheriff Harper, Respondent-appellee, 862 F.2d 870 (4th Cir. 1988)
Annotate this CaseTroussant Delano Lett, appellant pro se.
Before K.K. HALL and SPROUSE, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:
Troussant Delano Lett seeks to appeal the district court's dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for failure to pay the $5.00 filing fee. Finding that the district court properly complied with the procedures approved in Evans v. Croom, 650 F.2d 521 (4th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 454 U.S. 1153 (1982), and did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the action without prejudice, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny a certificate of probable cause, and dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal arguments are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and oral argument would not significantly aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED.
