PER CURIAM:
Norman Ruffin appeals the district court’s order dismissing
his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint without prejudice for
failure to comply with its prior order. See Fed. R. Civ. P.
41(b). We review a district court’s dismissal under Rule 41(b)
for abuse of discretion. Ballard v. Carlson, 882 F.2d 93, 95
(4th Cir. 1989). We have reviewed the record and find no abuse
of discretion. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by
the district court. Ruffin v. Calhoun, No. 2:16-cv-00403-RGD-
RJK (E.D. Va. Sept. 6, 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.
AFFIRMED
