Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 5:96-CV-124
- - - - - - - - - -
December 11, 1996
Before WIENER, BARKSDALE, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Anthony Carlos Nelson appeals the district court’s dismissal
as frivolous of his civil rights suit. Nelson argues that the
district court erred in determining that he failed to allege a
due process violation in regard to the deprivation of his
property.
We have reviewed Nelson’s brief and the record and find that
the appeal is without arguable merit and thus frivolous.
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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. 96-40691
- 2 -
Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
We caution Nelson that any additional frivolous appeals
filed by him will invite the imposition of sanctions. To avoid
sanctions, Nelson is further cautioned to review any pending
appeals to ensure that they do no raise arguments that are
frivolous.
DISMISSED. SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
