Ervin Middleton, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

     Ervin Middleton appeals the district court’s order dismissing

his complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012).                    We have

reviewed    the   record   and   find    that   this   appeal    is   frivolous.

Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss

the appeal for the reasons stated by the district court. Middleton

v. Carrington Mortg. Servs., LLC, No. 1:16-cv-01084-LMB-MSN (E.D.

Va. Aug. 26, 2016).        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.

                                                                        DISMISSED
