Turner, Individually and As Acorrectional Officer Assigned to the Maryland Penitentiary,defendants-appellees, 924 F.2d 1052 (4th Cir. 1991)

Aaron Holsey appeals the district court's denial of his "Motion for T.R.O. and Preliminary Injunction/Denial of Access to Courts." Applying the factors set forth in Blackwelder Furniture Co. v. Seilig Mfg. Co., 550 F.2d 189 (4th Cir. 1977), we hold that the denial of the preliminary injunction was not an abuse of discretion. We are without jurisdiction to review the denial of the request for a temporary restraining order. See Commonwealth of Virginia v. Tenneco, Inc., 538 F.2d 1026, 1029-30 (4th Cir. 1976).

As our review of the record and other materials before us reveals that it would not aid the decisional process, we dispense with oral argument. We affirm the denial of the preliminary injunction and dismiss the appeal from the denial of the restraining order.

AFFIRMED IN PART AND DISMISSED IN PART.
