April 17, 1996
Before JOLLY, JONES, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Wendell Duncan appeals the dismissal of his civil rights
complaint as frivolous pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d). The
district district court determined that Duncan's complaint failed
to satisfy Heck v. Humphrey, 114 S. Ct. 2364, 2372 (1994), i.e.
because a judgment in his favor would imply the invalidity of his
conviction and he failed to show that "his complaint has not been
`reversed, expunged, invalidated, or impugned by the grant of a
writ of habeas corpus.'" R. 28. The district court denied
*
Pursuant to Local Rule 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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 Local Rule
47.5.4.
No. 95-60766
