Plaintiff-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Louisiana
USDC No. 01-MC-36
--------------------
August 20, 2002
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Yoram Raz, a litigant previously barred from filing another
complaint in the Western District of Louisiana without first
obtaining written permission, appeals from the district court’s
denial of written permission for him to file a “petition for
injunction to stop a chronic and illegal FBI surveillance,”
naming Robert M. Mueller, FBI Director, as the defendant. The
factual allegations set forth in Raz’s proposed complaint can
fairly be characterized as irrational and wholly incredible. See
Denton v. Hernandez, 504 U.S. 25, 32-33 (1992). The district

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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.

court did not abuse its discretion in denying Raz written
permission to file his complaint.
Raz’s appeal to this court is without arguable merit and is
frivolous. Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983).
APPEAL DISMISSED. 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
