Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Mississippi
USDC No. 2:05-CV-1
USDC No. 2:05-CV-2174
--------------------
Before DAVIS, BARKSDALE and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Earl Lewis Anderson, Jr., Mississippi prisoner # L1784,
proceeding pro se, moves for leave to proceed in forma pauperis
(IFP) in an appeal of the magistrate judge’s (MJ) interlocutory
orders denying Anderson’s motion for a temporary restraining
order and preliminary injunction, motion for appointment of
counsel and issuance of subpoenas, and interlocutory orders
terminating some parties, and consolidating cases. Anderson’s
IFP motion is a challenge to the MJ’s certification that his
appeal is not taken in good faith. See Baugh v. Taylor, 117 F.3d
197, 202 (5th Cir. 1997).
This court lacks jurisdiction over the interlocutory orders
denying Anderson’s request for a temporary restraining orders,
denying his request to issue subpoenas, to terminate parties, and
to consolidate cases. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291; Faulder v. Johnson,
178 F.3d 741, 742 (5th Cir. 1999). Anderson’s argument that the
MJ abused his discretion by denying his request for injunctive
relief fails because he does not show “extraordinary
*
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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.

circumstances” which would compel a reversal of the MJ’s ruling.
White v. Carlucci, 862 F.2d 1209, 1211 (5th Cir. 1989).
Anderson does not address the MJ’s analysis that he was able
to adequately represent himself. Anderson argues only that
counsel should be appointed to bring claims of medical
malpractice. Because he fails to identify any error in the MJ’s
analysis, the argument is abandoned. See Brinkmann v. Dallas
County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987).
Anderson has not shown that he will present a nonfrivolous
issue on appeal. See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 220 (5th Cir.
1983). Accordingly, the motion for leave to proceed IFP is
DENIED and the appeal is DISMISSED as frivolous. See Baugh, 117
F.3d at 202 n.24; 5th Cir. 42.2. Anderson’s motion for a
transcript at the expense of the Government is DENIED.
The dismissal of this appeal counts as one strike under 28
U.S.C. § 1915(g). See Adepegba v. Hammons, 103 F.3d 383, 387
(5th Cir. 1996). Anderson is CAUTIONED that if he accumulates
three strikes under § 1915(g), he will not be able to proceed IFP
in any civil action or appeal filed while he is incarcerated or
detained in any facility unless he is under imminent danger of
serious physical injury. § 1915(g).
IFP MOTION DENIED; APPEAL DISMISSED; MOTION FOR TRANSCRIPT
DENIED; SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
