Billy Ray Collins v. L v. Stephenson

831 F.2d 1057 Unpublished Disposition NOTICE: Fourth Circuit I.O.P. 36.6 states that citation of unpublished dispositions is disfavored except for establishing res judicata, estoppel, or the law of the case and requires service of copies of cited unpublished dispositions of the Fourth Circuit. Billy Ray COLLINS, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. L.V. STEPHENSON, Defendant-Appellee. No. 87-7156. United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit. Submitted Aug. 21, 1987. Decided Oct. 22, 1987. Billy Ray Collins, appellant pro se. Before DONALD RUSSELL, JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS and ERVIN, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: [1] A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal from its order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 is without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument and affirm the judgment below on the reasoning of the district court. Collins v. Stephenson, C/A No. 87-342-CRT (E.D.N.C. May 7, 1987). [2] AFFIRMED.
