Appeal from the United States District Court for the
Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 3:97-CV-2922-R
_________________________________________________________________
October 27, 1998
Before JOLLY, SMITH, and WIENER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Curtis Jackson, Jr., Texas state prisoner #97004495, appeals
from the district court’s dismissal of his civil rights suit
brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Jackson argues, as he did
for the first time in his objections to the magistrate judge’s
report and recommendation, that the defendants were deliberately
indifferent to his serious medical needs. We have reviewed the
record and find no abuse of discretion by the district court. See
United States v. Riascos, 76 F.3d 93, 94 (5th Cir. 1996).
*
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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
