Unpublished Disposition
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Virginia, at Norfolk. John A. MacKenzie, Senior District Judge. (C/A No.
88-186-N)
Alvin Royce Westberry, appellant pro se.
Alan Katz, Office of the Attorney General, Richmond, Va., for appellees.
E.D.Va.
AFFIRMED.
Before WIDENER, SPROUSE and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Alvin Royce Westberry, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district court's dismissal
1
of his claim that the prison's policy of allowing inmates to attend in-state
funerals but not out-of-state funerals violated his equal protection rights
because he was not allowed to attend his son's funeral in Georgia. We affirm.
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not
significantly aid in the decisional process.
AFFIRMED.
