Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 883 F.2d 69 (4th Cir. 1989) Submitted April 28, 1989. Decided Aug. 8, 1989

Carlon Edward Pittman, appellant pro se.

Before WIDENER and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


Carlon Edward Pittman appeals the district court's dismissal of this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action for failure to pay the assessed 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 affirm the district court's order. We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

AFFIRMED.
