PER CURIAM:

              Noble    Tornello        Fontaine    Pierce       El-Bey       appeals   the

district       court’s       orders      adopting        the    magistrate        judge’s

recommendation to dismiss his civil action and impose a pre-

filing injunction.             We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.            We further conclude that the district court

did     not    abuse     its       discretion     in     imposing      the     pre-filing

injunction.      See Cromer v. Kraft Foods N.A., Inc., 390 F.3d 812,

817-18 (4th Cir. 2004) (setting forth standard of review and

four     factors      used     to     evaluate     propriety      of     a     pre-filing

injunction).          Accordingly, although we grant El-Bey leave to

proceed on appeal in forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons

stated by the district court.              See El-Bey v. City of Greensboro,

No.    1:10-cv-00572-NCT-JEP           (M.D.N.C.       March    21,    2012;     May   16,

2013).        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
