Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Mark Ryland Dowdy appeals the district court’s order
dismissing without prejudice his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006)
complaint as frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b) (2006). We
have reviewed the record and find that this appeal is frivolous.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated by the
district court. Dowdy v. Univ. of Va., No. 7:11-cv-00549-MFU-
RSB (W.D. Va. entered Dec. 6, 2011 & filed Dec. 7, 2011). 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
