Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 6:96-CV-908
- - - - - - - - - -
December 9, 1998
Before DAVIS, DeMOSS, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Charles Earl Wallace, Texas prisoner # 715750, appeals the
district court’s dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Wallace’s
arguments regarding the prison grievance procedure lack a factual
foundation, and his action for damages resulting from the
disciplinary proceeding is not cognizable in a § 1983 action.
See Edwards v. Balisok, 520 U.S. 641 (1997).
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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. 97-41159
-2-
This appeal is without arguable merit and thus frivolous.
It is DISMISSED. See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th
Cir. 1983); 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
Wallace is cautioned that future frivolous appeals will
invite the imposition of sanctions. Wallace should review any
pending appeals to ensure that they do not raise frivolous
arguments.
APPEAL DISMISSED; SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
