Benson v. Detention Center Union Parish

Opinion

PER CURIAM: *

In their brief on appeal, appellants present no real legal argument expressing or explaining their position as to how, in their view, the district court committed reversible error. This failure adequately to brief *273 any of the stated issues on appeal constitutes waiver of those issues. See Fed.R.App. P. 28(a)(9)(A); United States v. Beaumont, 972 F.2d 558, 563 (5th Cir. 1992) (“Failure of an appellant to properly argue or present issues in an appellate brief renders those issues abandoned.”). Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for want of prosecution.

*

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
