    The document is an unpublished opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit regarding a case brought by Curtis Lee Mayfield against prison officials. The district court had denied Mayfield relief in his Section 1983 civil rights lawsuit regarding conditions in the Therapeutic Community at Indian Creek Correctional Center, where he was previously incarcerated. The appellate court affirmed the district court's ruling, finding that Mayfield's claim for injunctive relief was moot since he was no longer incarcerated at that facility, and that his claim for monetary damages was barred because he could not demonstrate physical injury as required under the Prison Litigation Reform Act.

    Curtis Lee Mayfield, Appellant Pro Se. Susan Foster Barr, OFFICE
    OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for
    Appellees.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Curtis Lee Mayfield appeals the district courts order denying
    relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint.
    Mayfield was a prisoner in the Therapeutic Community at the Indian
    Creek Correctional Center (ICCC).

    As the district court noted,

    Mayfield is no longer a prisoner in that facility; consequently,


    his claim for injunctive relief is moot.
    CA-00-1773-AM (E.D. Va. Aug. 29, 2001).

    Mayfield v. Fleming, No.


    Further, the district

    court correctly concluded that Mayfields claim for money damages


    is barred because he can show no physical injury.
    1997e(e) (West Supp. 2001).

    42 U.S.C.A.

    Accordingly, the district court

    properly granted summary judgment against Mayfield.

    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
