Joe Hilliard, Appellant Pro Se. Christie Newman, OFFICE OF THE
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

          Joe    Hilliard    appeals     the     district      court's   order

dismissing his civil action for failure to comply with the court’s

order.   We     have   reviewed   the   record    and   find    no   abuse   of

discretion.   See Ballard v. Carlson, 882 F.2d 93 (4th Cir. 1989).

Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See

Hilliard v. Veneman, No. CA-04-22431-5 (D.S.C. June 14, 2005).               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

                                  - 2 -
