Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit - 89 F.3d 850 (10th Cir. 1996) June 26, 1996

ORDER AND JUDGMENT* 

Before SEYMOUR, Chief Judge, KELLY, and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.** 

PAUL J. KELLY, Jr., Circuit Judge.


Mr. Hellman appeals from the district court's dismissal of his complaint and action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d). The December 21, 1995, notice of appeal was timely filed because the district court's order of dismissal was not entered on the docket until November 21, 1995. See I R. doc. 22 at 9; Fed. R. App. P. 4(a) (1). The district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the action. See Denton v. Hernandez, 504 U.S. 25 (1992).

AFFIRMED. All pending motions are DENIED. The mandate shall issue forthwith.

 *

This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. This court generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3

 **

After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this three-judge panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not be of material assistance in the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The cause is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument
