August 20, 1996
Before KING, DUHÉ, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The district court did not err in denying Steven Wayne
Slovacek’s, #37488-079, motion to clarify judgment and probation-
commitment order. The appeal is without arguable merit and thus
frivolous. Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983).
The appeal is DISMISSED. 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
*
Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule
47.5.4.
No. 96-40098

We caution Slovacek that any additional frivolous appeals
filed by him will invite the imposition of sanctions. To avoid
sanctions, Slovacek is further cautioned to review all pending
appeals to ensure that they do not raise arguments that are
frivolous.
APPEAL DISMISSED; SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
