Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 33 F.3d 57 (8th Cir. 1994) Submitted: July 18, 1994. Filed: August 12, 1994

Before McMILLIAN, Circuit Judge, BRIGHT, Senior Circuit Judge, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM.


Richard T. Kellar, Sr., filed this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, claiming he was deprived of property without due process because defendant prison officials charged his inmate account the cost of sending his mail "certified-return receipt requested" when he only authorized the mail to be sent certified. The District Court1  for the Southern District of Iowa, dismissed the action without prejudice as frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d). Kellar appeals, and we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).
