    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: July 25, 1995.
    Decided: August 15, 1995.

    Cornelius Tucker, Jr., appellant pro se.


    Before WILKINS, NIEMEYER, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Appellant appeals the district court's order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 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. Finding no abuse of discretion, we affirm the district
    court's order. 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.
