John E. Milton, III, federal prisoner #24395-034, was convicted of conspiring to possess crack and powder cocaine with intent to distribute and was sentenced to serve 600 months in prison and a five-year term of supervised release. Now, he moves this court for authorization to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) in this appeal from the district court’s denial of his “motion to rescind” the judgment denying his second 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion.

The “motion to rescind” was meaningless, unauthorized, and without any jurisdictional basis. See United States v. Early, 27 F.3d 140, 142 (5th Cir. 1994). Consequently, this appeal does not involve “legal points arguable on their merits (and therefore not frivolous).” See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 220 (5th Cir. 1983) (internal quotation marks omitted). The appeal is DISMISSED as frivolous, and Milton’s IFP motion is DENIED. See Baugh v. Taylor, 117 F.3d 197, 202 & n. 24 (5th Cir. 1997); 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
