Tommy Jammer, former Texas prisoner # 1346906, ** appeals from the dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 suit. The district court held that the suit was barred by the statute of limitations. It dismissed the complaint as frivolous and for failure to state a claim pursuant to 28 U.S.C. *287 § 1915(e)(2)(B). Jammer does not address in his appellate brief the district court’s conclusion that his complaint was time-barred. By failing to address the basis of the district court’s decision, Jammer has abandoned the issue on appeal, and we need not address it. See Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 222-25 (5th Cir. 1998); Brinkmann v. Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987).

In an abundance of caution, we note that prior to filing his appellate brief, Jammer filed a notice of change of address, which included several pages of argument. With the benefit of liberal construction, Jammer asserted that he filed a previous suit in the Southern District of Texas. He makes no argument, however, as to how this suit tolled the limitations period under state law, and the issue is inadequately briefed. See Yohey, 985 F.2d at 224-25; see also Gartrell v. Gaylor, 981 F.2d 254, 257 (5th Cir.l993)(limitations period may be tolled by state law tolling provisions).

Jammer fails to show error in the district court’s dismissal. His appeal is without arguable merit and is therefore dismissed as frivolous. See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 220 (5th Cir. 1983); 5th Cir. R. 42.2. Jammer is cautioned that the district court’s dismissal of his complaint and the dismissal of this appeal count as a strikes under § 1915(g) and that if he accumulates three strikes, he will not be able to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) in any civil action or appeal filed while he is incarcerated or detained in any facility unless he is under imminent danger of serious physical injury. See Adepegba v. Hammons, 103 F.3d 383, 388 (5th Cir. 1996).

APPEAL DISMISSED; SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
