James P. Mixon, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
James P. Mixon, Jr., appeals the district court’s order
denying in forma pauperis status in his civil action. The denial of
in forma pauperis status is an immediately appealable order. See
Roberts v. United States District Court, 339 U.S. 844, 845 (1950).
We have reviewed the record and the district court’s order and find
no abuse of discretion. We therefore affirm the order. Mixon v.
Booker, No. CA-98-22-2 (E.D. Va. July 22, 1998). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
