Jeffrey Thomas FARMER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. POLICE DEPARTMENT OF CARRBORO, NORTH CAROLINA, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 04-1850.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: Sept. 9, 2004.
    Decided: Sept. 14, 2004.
    Jeffrey Thomas Farmer, Appellant pro se.
    Before WILKINSON, MICHAEL, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.
    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).
   PER CURIAM:

Jeffrey Thomas Farmer appeals the district court’s order and judgment dismissing as frivolous his civil rights complaint against the Police Department of Carrboro, North Carolina. The court properly noted that Farmer’s complaint was filed in the wrong district and he could not seek punitive damages against a municipality under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000). We have reviewed the record and dismiss the appeal as frivolous. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal con-. tentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
