PER CURIAM:*

Charlie Wilborn appeals the dismissal of his civil action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d), contending that his claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and the Rehabilitation Act are not time-barred and that the district court abused its discretion in denying leave to amend his complaint to include claims under the predecessor statute

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.

No. 95-50883 -2- of the Americans with Disabilities Act. We have reviewed the record and Wilborn's brief and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the action as frivolous. We are unpersuaded by Wilborn's contention that his mental incompe- tence tolled the limitations period.

The appeal, too, is without arguable merit and thus frivolous.

See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983). Because the appeal is frivolous, it is DISMISSED. 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.

We previously warned Wilborn in Wilborn v. Keel, No. 95-50370 (5th Cir. Dec. 20, 1995) (per curiam), that further frivolous appeals would invite the imposition of sanctions and cautioned him to review any pending appeals to ensure that they did not raise frivolous arguments. Wilborn has not heeded this warning.

Accordingly, Wilborn is barred from filing any pro se, in forma pauperis civil appeal in this court, or any pro se, in forma pauperis, initial civil pleading in any court that is subject to this court's jurisdiction, without the advance written permission of a judge of the forum court; the clerk of this court and the clerks of all federal district courts in this circuit are directed to return to Wilborn, unfiled, any attempted submission inconsis- tent with this bar.

APPEAL DISMISSED; SANCTION IMPOSED.
