Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

John D. Black appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his civil action for improper venue. We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the

appeal for the reasons stated by the district court. Black v.

New Jersey, No. 5:08-cv-00193-F (E.D.N.C. Mar. 4, 2009). 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.

DISMISSED
