    Charles Thomas Dickerson appealed the district court's denial of relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint against FBI agents. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals reviewed the record and found Dickerson's appeal to be frivolous, denying him to proceed in forma pauperis and dismissing the appeal based on the district court's reasoning that Dickerson failed to state a claim. The appeals court dispensed with oral argument, finding the facts and legal arguments were adequately presented in the case materials.

    No. 04-7488

    CHARLES THOMAS DICKERSON,


    Plaintiff - Appellant,
    versus
    CHRISTOPHER LAWLOR, FBI Agent; SEVERAL UNKNOWN
    NAMED AGENTS AND OFFICERS,
    Defendants - Appellees.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
    District of Virginia, at Alexandria. James C. Cacheris, Senior
    District Judge. (CA-04-556-1)

    Submitted:

    January 27, 2005

    Decided:

    February 3, 2005

    Before LUTTIG and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior


    Circuit Judge.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Charles Thomas Dickerson, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Charles Thomas Dickerson appeals the district courts
    order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. 1983 (2000) complaint under
    28 U.S.C. 1915A(b) (2000).

    We have reviewed the record and find

    that this appeal is frivolous.

    Accordingly, we deny leave to

    proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning


    of the district court.

    See Dickerson v. Lawlor, No. CA-04-556-1

    (E.D. Va. Aug. 9, 2004).

    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
