Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 9:93-CV-202
- - - - - - - - - -
April 19, 1996
Before DUHÉ, DeMOSS, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Appellant Juan Gomez appeals the judgment entered for
appellee James Chivers in his civil rights action, following a
jury trial. The resolution of Gomez's arguments on appeal
depends on a review of a transcript of that trial. The district
court denied Gomez's motion for a transcript at government
expense, and he has not renewed his motion in this court or
appealed the district court's denial of his motion.
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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. 95-40627
-2-
It is Gomez's responsibility to provide this court with a
transcript. See Fed. R. App. P. 10(b). Gomez’s failure to
provide one prevents this court from reviewing his arguments that
the jury’s answers to interrogatories propounded by the court
were against the weight of the evidence and that the court issued
improper jury instructions. Accordingly, we must dismiss the
appeal. See Richardson v. Henry, 902 F.2d 414, 415-16 (5th
Cir.), cert. denied, 498 U.S. 901 (1990).
APPEAL DISMISSED.
