___________________________________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. H-69-CV-74 ____________________________________________________ July 16, 1999 Before POLITZ, JOLLY, and WIENER, Circuit Judges PER CURIAM:* Earnest Brishun Love, Texas state prisoner #584043, appeals the denial of his motion for enforcement of a consent decree and for civil contempt, contending that prison officials are denying him the right to freely practice his religion. Our review of the record discloses no reversible error. Love has failed to show that the district court’s denial of his motion was an abuse of discretion.2 Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.

* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5 TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. 2 See Martin v. Trinity Indus., Inc., 959 F.2d 45, 47 (5th Cir. 1992); Piggly Wiggly Clarksville, Inc. v. Mrs. Baird’s Bakeries, ___ F.3d ___, (5th Cir.
