U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, 1988

Willie Ray McDonald v. L.M. Linson

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided April 8, 1988 · Gee, Garwood, Jones

841 F.2d 666; 1988 U.S. App. LEXIS 4395; 1988 WL 23850 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

For the reasons stated by the trial court in its order of dismissal, we affirm its final judgment.

In addition, we note that the trial court admonished McDonald that his action was frivolous and that the filing of further frivolous actions would result in sanctions. Nevertheless, he indulged himself in this frivolous appeal.

We therefore revoke McDonald’s pauper status, DISMISS the appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d), and award costs against McDonald pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e). 1

It is so ORDERED.

. Such costs, but not in excess of $75.00, shall be deducted in as equal as possible installments from his prison account in amounts that will not deplete the account below $10.00 at the time of a payment.
