Summary Calendar
CECIL LLOYD ALLEN,
Plaintiff-Appellant,
VERSUS
M. JONES, Lieutenant, Eastham Unit, Texas Dept.
Criminal Justice, Institutional Division,
Defendant-Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
For the Eastern District of Texas
(9:94-CV-245)
December 18, 1996
Before SMITH, DUHÉ and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:1
Allen, a Texas state prisoner, proceeding pro se and in forma
pauperis, brings this civil rights action alleging that his
constitutional rights were violated when he was sentenced to 15
days commissary restriction pursuant to a disciplinary report. The
district court dismissed his complaint as frivolous. We dismiss
his appeal as frivolous.
1
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opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under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.
Allen’s complaint raises neither a liberty nor a property
interest. See Sandin v. Conner, 115 S.Ct. 2293 (1995). His
allegation that this disciplinary action may negatively influence
the parole board to deny him relief is completely speculative.
Luken v. Scott, l71 F.3d 192, 193 (5th Cir. 1995), cert denied, 116
S. Ct. 1690 (1996).
Appellant is warned that the filing of further frivolous
pleadings may result in the imposition of sanctions.
APPEAL DISMISSED. SANCTIONS WARNING ISSUED.
