PER CURIAM:

OPINION

¶1

Anthony Crowell, a former Virginia prisoner now incarcerated in New Mexico, filed two notices of appeal from the district court's order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) action as frivolous, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) (1988). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses no abuse of discretion and that these appeals are without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Crowell v. Smith, No. CA-92-1230 (E.D. Va. Dec. 7, 1992 and Jan. 5, 1993). 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
