PER CURIAM:

Walter T. Gaines appeals the district court’s order 

dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2012) petition without 

prejudice for failing to comply with a court order. We have 

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, 

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Gaines 

v. Warden Lee Corr. Inst., No. 4:14-cv-03444-RBH (D.S.C. Oct. 8, 

2014). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and 

legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials 

before this court and argument would not aid the decisional 

process.

AFFIRMED
