PER CURIAM:
Advertisement
Wallace S. Davis seeks to appeal the district court order dismissing his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 petition or failure to pay a filing fee. Upon receipt of Davis' prison trust account records the district court ordered him to pay a $5.00 filing fee within thirty days of that court's order. Upon expiration of the thirty days, Davis having failed to comply with the order, the district court dismissed the case without prejudice.
The district court properly complied with the procedures authorized by this Court in Evans v. Croom, 650 F.2d 521 (4th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 454 U.S. 1153 (1982). We, therefore, deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal, deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, and dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument as it would not significantly aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED.
