PER CURIAM:* Eric Deshun Williams (TDCJ #777518) appeals the dismissal as frivolous of his pro se and in forma pauperis (IFP) civil rights complaint. Williams argued in the complaint that his constitutional rights were violated when he “illegally” was transferred to TDCJ custody while his direct appeal was still pending. * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. No. 97-10709 -2- We have reviewed the record and Williams’s brief and find no reversible error relating to Williams’s illegal-transfer claim. Accordingly, we AFFIRM for the reasons stated by the magistrate judge and adopted by the district court. Williams v. Dallas County District Attorney’s Office, et al., No. 3-97-CV-1041-X (N.D. Tex., June 17, 1997). Insofar as Williams’s complaint raised any additional issues, Williams has abandoned them by failing to assert them on appeal. See Brinkmann v. Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 815 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987). AFFIRMED.
