No. 91-3085 

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS 

(D.C. No. 90-3136-R) 

Submitted on the briefs: 

Lee Alphonso Moore, Pro se, Leavenworth, Kansas, for PlaintiffAppellant. 

Before McKAY, Chief Judge, SEYMOUR and EBEL, Circuit Judges. 

McKAY, Circuit Judge. 

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel 

has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially 

assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 

Appellate Case: 91-3085 Document: 01019337732 Date Filed: 12/30/1991 Page: 1 
34(a); lOth Cir. R. 34.1.9. The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. 

This matter is before the court on Appellant's motion to proceed on appeal without prepayment of costs or fees. We grant 

Appellant's motion and proceed to the merits of the case. See 28 

u.s.c. § 1915(a); Coppedge v. United States, 369 u.s. 438 (1962); 

Ragan v. Cox, 305 F.2d 58 (lOth Cir. 1962). 

Appellant challenges the district court's dismissal of his 

claim that Appellees have violated his constitutional rights by 

refusing to change his race classification in Bureau of Prison 

Records from "Black" to "African American." We AFFIRM the district court's disposition, found at 737 F. Supp. 1186 (D. Kan. 

1990), and hold that no constitutional issue has been raised. 

AFFIRMED.
