Jeffrey Cohen, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Jeffrey Cohen appeals the district court’s orders requiring
him to supplement his complaint and dismissing his civil action
for noncompliance with that order. A plaintiff’s failure to
comply with a court order may warrant involuntary dismissal.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). We review the dismissal of a complaint
under Rule 41(b) for abuse of discretion. Ballard v. Carlson,
882 F.2d 93, 95-96 (4th Cir. 1989); see Davis v. Williams, 588
F.2d 69, 70 (4th Cir. 1978) (discussing relevant factors to
consider in exercising discretion). We have reviewed the record
and find no abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. Cohen v. Bealuk, No.
1:15-cv-00470-ELH (D. Md. filed Mar. 13, 2015 & entered Mar. 16,
2015; filed & entered Apr. 2, 2015). 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
