Sumbry v. Gary City Police

United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit F I L E D IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT February 23, 2006 Charles R. Fulbruge III Clerk No. 05-30242 Conference Calendar LARRIANTE SUMBRY, Petitioner-Appellant, versus GARY CITY POLICE; CECIL DAVIS, Respondents-Appellees. -------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana USDC No. 2:05-CV-75 -------------------- Before GARZA, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Larriante Sumbry, Indiana prisoner # 965137, appeals the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition which the district court construed as a motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 and dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Sumbry does not set forth argument citing to the record and fails to identify error in the district court’s determinations and conclusions. When an appellant fails to identify error in the district court’s decision, it is as if the appellant had not appealed that judgment. See Brinkmann v. * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. No. 05-30242 -2- Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987). Sumbry’s appeal is therefore DISMISSED as frivolous. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2; Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983).
