-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana USDC No. 01-CV-2464 -------------------- February 19, 2003 Before WIENER, EMILIO M. GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Robert Kaltenbach appeals from the order of the district
court denying him authorization to file his complaint, pursuant
to a 1992 sanction order requiring prior authorization.
Kaltenbach contends that the sanction order deprived him of his
right of access to the courts and his right to equal protection
* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. 02-30458 -2-
of the law. He also contends that his Fourth Amendment and due
process rights were violated when his home was searched and
property was seized pursuant to an allegedly invalid eviction
warrant.
Kaltenbach did not appeal from the order imposing sanctions.
His current challenge to that order amounts to an untimely appeal
over which we lack jurisdiction. See United States v. Carr,
979 F.2d 51, 55(5th Cir. 1992).
Kaltenbach does not contend that the district court erred by
determining that his substantive claims would have been barred by
Dist. of Columbia Court of Appeals v. Feldman,
460 U.S. 462, 476, 482(1983), and Rooker v. Fidelity Trust Co.,
263 U.S. 413, 415-16(1923), had he been authorized to file his complaint. He
has not shown that the district court should have allowed him to
file his complaint.
APPEAL DISMISSED AS FRIVOLOUS. 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
