                                   No. 15-10042
      Proceeding pro se, Deloris Phillips appeals the district court’s dismissal
of all of her claims against Defendants. The district court dismissed, with
prejudice, Phillips’s claims against the Federal Bureau of Investigation
pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) upon concluding that
Phillips failed to plead facts sufficient to support any claim for relief and that
the claims were duplicative of previous filings. The district court dismissed
the claims against all of the other Defendants pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(e)(2)(B) upon concluding that the claims were factually frivolous and
malicious. In addition, the district court modified already-existing sanctions
against Phillips to prevent Phillips from filing, removing, or transferring any
litigation in the Northern District of Texas without first obtaining leave from
a district court judge.
      In her brief on appeal, Phillips fails to address the district court’s reasons
for dismissing her claims, does not adequately argue why she is entitled to any
relief, and does not include a statement of issues presented for review.
Although we must liberally construe the briefs of pro se litigants, “pro se
parties must still brief the issues and reasonably comply with the standards of
Rule 28.” Grant v. Cuellar, 59 F.3d 523, 524 (5th Cir. 1995). By failing to
address the district court’s reasoning, adequately argue entitlement to relief,
and include a statement of issues presented for review, Phillips’s appeal fails
to comply with the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Toala v. Marriott
White Lodging Corp., 456 F. App’x 476, 477 (5th Cir. 2012). Therefore, we
DISMISS the appeal for want of prosecution. See id. All pending motions are
DENIED.
