PER CURIAM:
Berwyn Robinson appeals the district court’s order dismissing without prejudice
his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition for failure to comply with the magistrate judge’s
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. Robinson v. State of N.C., No. 5:18-hc-02210-BO
(E.D.N.C. Oct. 3, 2018). We grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 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
