June 16, 1998
Before DAVIS, PARKER, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Juan Jorge Sanchez, Texas prisoner # 577512, argues that the
district court erred in dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint
as frivolous and for failure to state a claim pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(b)(i), (ii) because a change was made in his
prisoner classification status in violation of his due process
and equal protection rights.
We have reviewed the record and Sanchez’s brief and AFFIRM
the district court’s dismissal for essentially the same reasons
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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. 97-40940
-2-
adopted by the district court. See Sanchez v. West, No. 1:96-CV-
395 (E.D. Tex. July 10, 1997).
Because Sanchez’s complaint was properly dismissed as
frivolous and for failure to state a constitutional claim, he was
not entitled to a trial by jury.
AFFIRMED.
