because they seized, pursuant to an administrative levy, Clay’s
1987 BMW from his carport in an attempt to collect outstanding
federal income taxes. The district court dismissed Clay’s
complaint on summary judgment. On appeal, Clay does not address
the merits of the district court's opinion. His appeal is
frivolous and is dismissed accordingly. See Brinkmann v. Dallas
County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987);
5th Cir. R. 42.2.
We caution Clay that any additional frivolous appeals filed
by him will invite the imposition of sanctions. To avoid
sanctions, Clay is further cautioned to review any pending
appeals to ensure that they do not raise arguments that are
frivolous.
APPEAL DISMISSED; SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
