Before HIGGINBOTHAM, JONES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Larry Don Robinson appeals from the dismissal of his civil
action for failure to state a claim. Robinson moves for leave to
file an out-of-time reply brief; Robinson’s motion is DENIED.
Robinson contends that Texas’s driver’s license and
automobile insurance laws violate his constitutionally protected
right to travel; that those laws violate other constitutional
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.

rights; that his claims against the State of Texas and Governor
George W. Bush were not barred by the Eleventh Amendment; that
the City of Mustang Ridge’s enforcement of Texas’s driver’s
license, liability insurance, and taillight laws subjected
Mustang Ridge to municipal liability; that his warrantless arrest
was improper; and that Special Automotive was a state actor.
Regarding Robinson’s claims against Texas and Governor Bush,
we have reviewed the record and the briefs of the parties and we
find Robinson’s contentions frivolous essentially for the reasons
relied upon by the district court. Robinson v. Texas, No. A-97-
CA-452 (W.D. Tex. Nov. 7, 1997). Pursuant to Heck v. Humphrey,
512 U.S. 477, 486 (1994), Robinson has no cause of action against
Mustang Ridge or Special Automotive until he obtains the
invalidation of his convictions.
APPEAL DISMISSED. 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
