IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT __________________ No. 95-40599 Conference Calendar __________________ LASHUN RICHARDSON, Petitioner-Appellant, versus GARY L. JOHNSON, DIRECTOR, TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE, INSTITUTIONAL DIVISION, Respondent-Appellee.

---------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas USDC No. 6:95-CV-24 ---------- June 26, 1996 Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BARKSDALE, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:* Lashun Richardson, Texas state prisoner #447118, appeals from the district court's dismissal of his habeas petition as an abuse of the writ. Richardson argues that he was not aware of his instant claims involving the validity of his arrest at the time he filed his previous habeas petitions. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, the judgment is AFFIRMED for essentially the reasons given by the district court.

* Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4.
