    The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissed Edward West's appeal of a district court's dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against Chesterfield County Jail and its nurses staff for failure to pay the assessed filing fee. The Fourth Circuit found that the district court properly followed the procedures approved in Evans v. Croom for dismissing an action without prejudice due to failure to pay fees. The Fourth Circuit denied West's request to proceed in forma pauperis and dismissed his appeal without oral argument since the dispositive issues had been recently decided authoritatively.

    Edward West, appellant pro se.


    Before MURNAGHAN, SPROUSE, and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Edward West appeals the district court's dismissal of this 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983
    action for failure to pay the assessed filing fee. Finding that the district court
    properly complied with the procedures approved in Evans v. Croom, 650 F.2d
    521 (4th Cir.1981), cert. denied, 454 U.S. 1153 (1982), and did not abuse its
    discretion in dismissing the action without prejudice, we deny leave to proceed
    in forma pauperis and dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument
    because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

    DISMISSED.
