PER CURIAM:*
Alcario Vera, #657497, appeals from the district court’s
dismissal pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) of his civil

immunity. We have reviewed the record, the magistrate judge’s

We caution Vera that any additional frivolous appeals filed by
him or on his behalf will invite the imposition of sanctions. To
avoid sanctions, Vera is further cautioned to review any pending
appeals to ensure that they do not raise arguments that are
frivolous.
AFFIRMED; SANCTIONS WARNING ISSUED.
