forma pauperis (IFP) under the Prison Litigation Reform Act

(PLRA), 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g), because, on at least three prior

     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent

R. 47.5.4.
                            No. 99-21058
                                 -2-

be granted.   See Adepegba v. Hammons, 103 F.3d 383, 385 (5th Cir.

1996); Teel v. Collins, No. 97-20165 (5th Cir. Sept. 19,

1997)(strike one); Teel v. Parker County, Nos. 95-10222 & 95-

10466 (5th Cir. Dec. 19, 1995)(strikes two and three).

     Accordingly, Teel’s IFP status is DECERTIFIED, and he may

not proceed IFP in any civil action or appeal filed while he is

in prison unless he is under imminent danger of serious physical

injury.   See § 1915(g).   The appeal is DISMISSED.

     Teel has 15 days from the date of this opinion to pay the

full appellate filing fee of $105 to the clerk of the district

court, should he wish to reinstate his appeal.

     IFP DECERTIFIED; APPEAL DISMISSED.
