Before JOLLY, JONES, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Innocent Oguagha appeals from the district court’s dismissal
of his civil rights complaint against the Immigration and
Naturalization Service (INS) for failure to prove that he had
exhausted his administrative remedies. Oguagha has failed to brief
this issue on appeal; it is therefore deemed abandoned. Yohey v.
Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 224-25 (5th Cir. 1993). Moreover, Oguagha

complaint. This appeal is without arguable merit and is thus
frivolous. It is DISMISSED.
Oguagha has also filed numerous motions with the court. These
include (1) a motion to compel; (2) a motion for continued stay of
deportation; (3) a motion to stay removability; (4) a motion for
supersedeas; (5) a motion for dismissal of the judgment of final
removability; (6) a motion for relief from the final removal order;
(7) a motion for a writ of habeas corpus (including a request to
consolidate cases against separate defendants and motions for
relief against new and old defendants); (8) a motion for judgment
against Harris County officials, the new defendants; (9) a motion
for summary judgment; and (10) a motion for discharge from state
custody, construed as a motion for bail pending appeal. These
motions are hereby DENIED.
