Per Curiam. Plaintiff William Ferguson appeals a
__________

district court judgment which dismissed his pro se complaint
___ __

for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be

granted. Having thoroughly reviewed the record and the

plaintiff's briefs and reply briefs, we are persuaded that

the district court judgment is correct. Moreover, the

plaintiff's multiple filings demonstrate that this suit is

patently frivolous and thus also subject to dismissal under

28 U.S.C. 1915(d). See Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319,
___ _______ ________

327-28 (1990).1 Accordingly, the defendants' motion for

summary affirmance is allowed and the judgment of the
_______

district court is affirmed.2
________

1. Thus, there also was no error in the district court's
denial of Ferguson's motion for a preliminary injunction.

2. Ferguson's motion to adduce additional evidence is
denied.
