We find no abuse of discretion in the district court's dismissal of the instant complaint as "frivolous" under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d).  See, e.g., Denton v.  Hernandez, 112 S. Ct. 1728, 1734 (1992) (§ 1915(d) dismissal properly reviewed for abuse of discretion);  Neitzke v.  Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 325 (1989) (complaint is frivolous "where it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in fact");  Watson v.  Caton, 984 F.2d 537, 539 (1st Cir. 1993).  It is uncontested that defendant, upon determining that it lacked jurisdiction over the matter, transferred plaintiff's complaint to the EEOC.  Plaintiff has provided no reason to suggest that these actions were other than in full conformance with applicable law.  See, e.g., 29 C.F.R. § 1691.5 (1992).  And even if it were otherwise, we perceive no arguable basis for subjecting defendant to liability as a result of any improprieties in its processing of plaintiff's complaint.  See, e.g., Francis-Sobel v.  University of Maine, 597 F.2d 15, 18 (1st Cir.)  (EEOC's alleged mishandling of grievance did not "support the implication of a damage remedy"), cert. denied, 444 U.S. 949 (1979);  see also Johnson v.  Rodriguez, 943 F.2d 104, 108-09 (1st Cir.)  (alleged irregularities in processing of complaint by state antidiscrimination commission did not implicate due process interest), cert. denied, 112 S. Ct. 949 (1992).  As we find no reason to believe that the deficiencies in the instant complaint "could be remedied through more specific pleading,"  Denton, 112 S. Ct. at 1734, dismissal under § 1915(d) was warranted.
