Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas USDC No. 3-95-CV-26 _________________________________________________________________
October 24, 1996
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, JONES, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Dennis Gibson, #671892, argues that the district court
erred in dismissing as frivolous his claim that he was denied
access to legal materials and legal assistance.
* Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4. We have reviewed the record, the opinion of the district
court, and the briefs, and find that the dismissal of the complaint
as frivolous should be affirmed substantially for the reasons
adopted by the district court. See Gibson v. McCoy, No. 3:95-CV-26
(E.D. Tex. Oct. 26, 1995).
Gibson also argues that the district court erred in
granting the defendants’ motion for summary judgment and dismissing
his claim that he was denied adequate medical care. We have also
reviewed the record and the briefs with respect to this claim, and
determine that the district court did not err in granting summary
judgment in the defendants’ favor, substantially for the reasons
adopted by the district court. See Gibson v. McCoy, No. 3:95-CV-26
(E.D. Tex. Feb. 20, 1995).
Finally, Gibson is hereby placed on notice that should he
continue to file frivolous lawsuits, he will be subject to
sanctions by this court.
AFFIRMED.
