v.

ROCKY MOUNT DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE,

No. 11-1162

ROCKY MOUNT POLICE DEPARTMENT; J. WAYNE SEARS; JENNY L. MATTHEWS,

Defendants – Appellees.

Appeals from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at New Bern. Louise W. Flanagan, Chief District Judge. (5:10-cv-00546-FL; 5:10-cv-00561-FL)

Submitted: April 11, 2011 Decided: April 15, 2011

Before MOTZ and WYNN, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Anthony L. McNair, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

2 PER CURIAM:

Anthony L. McNair appeals the district court’s order

adopting the recommendations of the magistrate judge and

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaints under

28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2006). Because McNair’s informal

briefs fail to address the district court’s basis for dismissing

his complaints, this issue has been abandoned. See 4th Cir. R.

34(b); Wahi v. Charleston Area Med. Ctr., Inc., 562 F.3d 599,

607 (4th Cir. 2009), cert. denied, 130 S. Ct. 1140 (2010).

Accordingly, we deny McNair’s motions for protection and affirm

the district court’s order. McNair v. Rocky Mount Dist. Att’y’s

Office, No. 5:10-cv-00546-FL; McNair v. Rocky Mount Police

Dep’t, No. 5:10-cv-00561-FL (E.D.N.C. Jan. 24, 2011;

Jan. 25, 2011). 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.
