PER CURIAM:

Latif Rashe’d appeals the district court’s order 

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint without 

prejudice for failure to pay the filing fee or to apply to 

proceed in forma pauperis. We have reviewed the record and find 

no reversible error. As the district court dismissed Rashe’d’s 

complaint without prejudice, his remedy is to refile his 

complaint along with an application to proceed in forma pauperis 

or submit the required filing fee. Accordingly, we affirm for 

the reasons stated by the district court. Rashe’d v. Johnson, 

No. 1:09-cv-00571-AJT-IDD (E.D. Va. filed Aug. 3, 2009 & entered 

Aug. 5, 2009). 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
