Appellant appeals the district court's order denying his motion to reconsider the dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint. The district court assessed a filing fee in accordance with Evans v. Croom, 650 F.2d 521 (4th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 454 U.S. 1153 (1982), and dismissed the case without prejudice when Appellant failed to comply with the fee order. We affirmed that order. Plath v. Beasley, No. 95-7902 (4th Cir. May 30, 1996) (unpublished). Finding no abuse of discretion in the district court's denial of reconsideration, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and affirm. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
