Appeal from the United States District Court
For the Northern District of Texas
(6:96-CV-018, 6:96-CV-019 & 6:96-CV-020)
September 5, 1997
Before DUHÉ, DeMOSS and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:1
The appeals in the three captioned cases are hereby
consolidated.
These three are but a very few of the numerous pro se cases
Appellant has filed in the district court and appealed to this
court. In each of these cases she moves to supplement the record on
appeal and to file an amended opening brief after additional delay
so that she may address the matters she wishes added to the record.
Both motions are denied. We do, however, take judicial notice of
the fact that, in each of these cases, Appellant has paid the
sanctions ordered by the district court.
Appellant complains on appeal of orders issued by the
magistrate judge, and the final order of the district court
dismissing as frivolous her claims of racial discrimination against
her employer, imposing sanctions for repeated frivolous filings,
1
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.

and instructing that her access to the district court be limited
until her sanctions are paid. Our review of the record convinces
us that the district court was not only correct and did not abuse
his discretion, but that he was also exceedingly patient with
Appellant’s continued abuse of the courts. We find her appeals
frivolous. We have warned her before about the continued filing of
such appeals. Accordingly we dismiss these appeals as frivolous,
impose a sanction of One Hundred Dollars in each case, and instruct
the Clerk of this court to accept no further filings from Appellant
in any matters until the sanctions are paid.
APPEALS CONSOLIDATED, MOTIONS DENIED, APPEALS DISMISSED AS
FRIVOLOUS, SANCTIONS IMPOSED.
