PER CURIAM:

       Fred Lee Johnson appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983

(2018) complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2018). * We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma

pauperis, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Johnson v. Prison Med.

Provider, No. 3:17-cv-00339-JAG-RCY (E.D. Va. Aug. 8, 2019). We deny Johnson’s

motion for default judgment. 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

       *
         Although the district court dismissed Johnson’s claims without prejudice, we have
jurisdiction over this appeal. See Bing v. Brivo Sys., LLC, 959 F.3d 605, 615 (4th Cir.
2020).
