Before WIENER, OWEN, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Plaintiff-Appellant Manning Nelson Rollerson sued the Defendants-

* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

violations of his constitutional rights under the Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth
Amendments. Defendants-Appellees sought dismissal under Federal Rule of
Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim, and Rollerson failed to
respond. After granting the dismissal motion of Defendants-Appellees under
Rule 12(b)(6), the district court ordered Rollerson to replead and amend his
complaint. When Rollerson failed to do so, the district court dismissed his
action with prejudice.
We have reviewed the facts as alleged and the applicable law as set forth
in the briefs of the parties and in the extensive Opinion and Order rendered by
the district court on May 16, 2013. As a result, we are convinced that the court
committed no reversible error and, to the contrary, correctly decided the case
under the circumstances. Accordingly, the Judgment of the district court is, in
all respects,
AFFIRMED.
