PER CURIAM:
Thomas J. Gross appeals the district court’s order
dismissing this action with prejudice for failure to comply with a
court order that he file a complaint that complied with Fed. R.
Civ. P. 8(a). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated
by the district court. Gross v. Mineta, No. 1:05-cv-01480-LMB
(E.D. Va. Jan. 20, 2006). We deny the motions to proceed in forma
pauperis and for appointment of counsel and 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
