PER CURIAM:
Pieter G. Kuypers appeals from the district court’s order dis-
missing Kuyper’s action to recover sums withheld by the state of
Maryland from his wages as a merchant seaman. We have reviewed the
record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny Kuypers’ motion to proceed on appeal
in forma pauperis and affirm on the reasoning of the district
court. Kuypers v. Comptroller of Treasury for Md., No. CA-01-616-H
(D. Md. filed Apr. 30, 2001, entered May 1, 2001). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
