UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS Tenth Circuit
TENTH CIRCUIT March 23, 2011
Elisabeth A. Shumaker
Clerk of Court
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
No. 10-5064
v. (D.C. No. 4:02-CR-00088-CVE-1)
(N.D. Okla.)
EFREM ZEMBLISH HARRIS,
Defendant - Appellant.
ORDER AND JUDGMENT*
Before BRISCOE, Chief Circuit Judge, TACHA, and O'BRIEN, Circuit Judges.
In 2004, we affirmed Efrem Zemblish Harris’ drug related convictions and
resulting life sentence. United States v. Harris, 369 F.3d 1157 (10th Cir. 2004). Since
then he has repeatedly filed meritless post-conviction motions and appeals. Consistent
*
The parties have waived oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(f); 10th Cir. R.
34.1(G). This case is submitted for decision on the briefs.
This order and judgment is an unpublished decision, not binding precedent. 10th
Cir. R. 32.1(A). Citation to unpublished decisions is not prohibited. Fed. R. App. 32.1.
It is appropriate as it relates to law of the case, issue preclusion and claim preclusion.
Unpublished decisions may also be cited for their persuasive value. 10th Cir. R. 32.1(A).
Citation to an order and judgment must be accompanied by an appropriate parenthetical
notation B (unpublished). Id.
with his past practices, he now appeals1 from the District Court’s dismissal of his latest
motion, which amounted to a request for sentence modification.
Harris tried to persuade the District Court he was entitled to be resentenced under
18 U.S.C. § 3559(c)(7). In a clear, cogent, and correct Opinion and Order the court
dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Like most of his other filings this frivolous appeal
abuses the court process, justifying summary disposition.
AFFIRMED.

Since Harris is pro se we construe his pleadings and papers liberally but do not
serve as his advocate. See Gallagher v. Shelton, 587 F.3d 1063, 1067 (10th Cir. 2009).
