    The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit affirmed the district court's denial of Lawrence Davis Jr.'s motion for reconsideration of the dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint. Davis had sued prison officials but his complaint was dismissed for failure to timely pay a partial filing fee. The appellate court reviewed the record and found no reversible error in the district court's reasoning. The appeals court thus affirmed the district court's ruling denying Davis' motion.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See


    Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Lawrence Davis, Jr. appeals from the district courts order
    denying his motion for reconsideration of its dismissal of his 42
    U.S.C. 1983 (1994) complaint for failure to timely pay a partial
    filing fee. We have reviewed the record and the district courts
    order and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the
    reasoning of the district court. Davis v. Thomas, No. CA-97-297-AM
    (E.D. Va. Apr. 23, 1998). 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
