PER CURIAM:* Terry James, Texas prisoner No. 337449, appeals the district court’s dismissal, as frivolous, of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights claim.

Hughes, 98 F.3d 868, 872 (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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
