    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 96-7132

    MELVIN P. DEUTSCH,
    Plaintiff - Appellant,
    versus
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE; UNITED
    STATES MARSHALS SERVICE,
    Defendants - Appellees.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Norfolk. Henry C. Morgan, Jr., District
    Judge. (CA-95-408-2)
    Submitted:

    November 26, 1996

    Decided:

    December 17, 1996

    Before ERVIN and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit
    Judge.
    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Melvin P. Deutsch, Appellant Pro Se.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Appellant appeals the district court's order requiring him to
    pay a partial filing fee in order to pursue his complaint filed
    under 42 U.S.C. 1983 (1994). This issue has already been resolved
    against Appellant. Deutsch v. United States Dep't of Justice, No.
    95-7928 (4th Cir. Apr. 29, 1996) (unpublished). We have reviewed
    the record and the district court's order and find that this appeal
    is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal pursuant to 28
    U.S.C. 1915(d) (1994), as amended by Prison Reform Litigation Act
    of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-134, 110 Stat. 1321. 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.

    DISMISSED
