UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 01-6735
SCOTT M. BOARD,
Petitioner - Appellant,
versus
STATE OF VERMONT,
Respondent - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, at Richmond. Richard L. Williams, District
Judge. (CA-01-38-3)
Submitted: July 26, 2001 Decided: August 8, 2001
Before WILKINS, LUTTIG, and TRAXLER, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Scott M. Board, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Scott M. Board appeals the district court’s order dismissing
his § 2254 petition for lack of venue. We have reviewed the record
and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we deny Board’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis
and affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Board v.
Vermont, No. CA-01-38-3 (E.D. Va. Mar. 20 & Apr. 24, 2001). 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
