April 17, 1996
Before DUHÉ, DeMOSS, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
George Don McGuffey has filed a motion to proceed in forma
pauperis (IFP) on his appeal of the district court's grant of
judgment as a matter of law for the defendant in McGuffey's civil
rights action. The court previously granted conditional IFP
status to McGuffey for the preparation of a trial transcript at
government expense. After a review of the record, we conclude
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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. 95-30653
-2-
that McGuffey has not demonstrated that he will present a
nonfrivolous issue on appeal. Therefore, his IFP status is
revoked and the appeal is dismissed. See Hailes v. Equitable
Life Assur. Soc. of U.S., 729 F.2d 1037 (5th Cir. 1984).
DISMISSED.
