Opinion

No. 09-6248.

Submitted: September 29, 2009.

Decided: October 5, 2009.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, Senior District Judge. (3:07-cv-00514-REP).

Gregory A. Richardson, Appellant Pro Se. Richard Carson Vorhis, Senior Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellees.

Before NIEMEYER, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


Gregory A. Richardson appeals the district court's order imposing a prefiling injunction because of his frequent and frivolous legal actions. See Richardson v. Virginia Dept of Corr., No. 3:07-cv-00514-REP (E.D.Va. Jan. 8, 2009). We have reviewed the record and find no abuse of discretion in the district court's order. See In re Burnley, 988 F.2d 1, 3-4 (4th Cir. 1992) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm and deny as moot Richardson's motion for bail or release pending appeal. 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.
