AFFIRMED.

Before SPROUSE and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


Aaron Holsey appeals the district court's decision denying Holsey's request for a preliminary injunction in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. After reviewing the record and applying the standard of Blackwelder Furniture Co. v. Seilig Mfg. Co., 550 F.2d 189 (4th Cir. 1977), we conclude that there was no abuse of discretion in denying injunctive relief.

Accordingly, as our review of the record and other materials before us reveals that it would not significantly aid the decisional process, we dispense with oral argument. The decision of the district court is affirmed.

AFFIRMED.
