Ludence Alford Turnbull, Jr., federal prisoner # 50634-083, filed this suit under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971), and the Federal Tort Claims Act to seek redress for loss of a portion of his trial transcripts. Turnbull argued that the loss of the transcripts infringed his right of access to courts. The district court dismissed the suit as frivolous, and Turnbull appeals this dismissal. He insists that his right of access to courts was violated by the loss of his transcripts because this loss prevented him from timely filing a 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion.

Turnbull has failed to show that he suffered any actual prejudice in connection with his claim of denial of access to courts. See Christopher v. Harbury, 536 U.S. 403, 415, 122 S.Ct. 2179, 153 L.Ed.2d 413 (2002). He has likewise failed to show that the district court erred by dismissing his suit. See Siglar v. Hightower, 112 F.3d 191, 193 (5th Cir. 1997); 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
