PER CURIAM:
Demmerick E. Brown appeals the district court’s order dismissing without prejudice
his civil action for failure to comply with a court order. We have reviewed the record and
find no reversible error. See Attkisson v. Holder, 925 F.3d 606, 625 (4th Cir. 2019)
(discussing relevant factors); Ballard v. Carlson, 882 F.2d 93, 95-96 (4th Cir. 1989)
(applying abuse-of-discretion standard). Accordingly, we affirm the court’s dismissal
order without prejudice to Brown having another opportunity to comply with the court’s
order. * Brown v. Clarke, No. 1:22-cv-01122-CMH-WEF (E.D. Va. Jan. 25, 2023). 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
*
If Brown refiles this action in the district court, the action will not be dismissed if
he fails to maintain 20% of the previous month’s balance in his Inmate Trust Account
because of payments toward pre-existing court fees.
