        PER CURIAM:

               Daryl Anthony Green appeals the district court’s orders: (1) dismissing his appeal

        from the bankruptcy court’s order dismissing his Chapter 13 bankruptcy case, and

        (2) imposing a prefiling injunction against him. With respect to the dismissal order, we

        have reviewed the record and find no reversible error and no abuse of discretion. See Fed.

        R. Bankr. P. 8003(a)(2); In re SPR Corp., 45 F.3d 70, 74 (4th Cir. 1995); In re Serra

        Builders, Inc., 970 F.2d 1309, 1311 (4th Cir. 1992). We also find no abuse of discretion

        by the district court in imposing monetary sanctions and a prefiling injunction upon finding

        that Green engaged in abusive, repetitive, and vexatious bankruptcy filings. Accordingly,

        we affirm the district court’s order. Green v. Prince George’s Cnty. Ofc. of Child Support,

        No. 8:21-cv-02441-PJM (D. Md. June 16, 2022).

               We deny Green’s motions: for an extension of time to file transcripts and to amend

        his informal brief; to address his appeals from the dismissal of two other bankruptcy court

        actions; for judicial notice, to strike the sanctions order, and for leave to file federal

        litigation; and for a stay pending appeal and a preliminary injunction. 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

                                                     3
