Opinion
No. 11-1709.
Submitted: November 17, 2011.
Decided: November 22, 2011.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Terrence W. Boyle, District Judge (5:11-cv-00107-BO).
Before KING, DAVIS, and WYNN, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Nathaniel Knox, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
Nathaniel Knox appeals the district court's order denying his motion seeking leave to proceed in forma pauperis. The denial of in forma pauperis status is immediately appealable.Roberts v. U.S. Dist. Ct., 339 U.S. 844, 845 (1950) (per curiam). We have reviewed the record and conclude the appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal and affirm the order denying pauper status for the reasons stated by the district court.See Knox v. North Carolina, No. 5:11-cv-00107-BO (E.D.N.C. June 9, 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.
AFFIRMED
