           Appeal from the United States District Court
                 for the Eastern District of Texas
                        USDC No. 6:01-CV-589

                           August 23, 2002
Before JONES, STEWART, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Jerry Mack Dorrough (“Dorrough”) appeals the district

court’s dismissal of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus

under 28 U.S.C. § 2241.   The district court dismissed the

petition as improvidently filed because it was filed in violation


     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
                           No. 02-40199
                                -2-

of a sanction order.   Dorrough reargues the merits of his

petition and argues that this court has erred in rejecting his

claims that his 1963 guilty-plea conviction for robbery of a

postal employee was invalid.   He moves for an order staying a

pending parole revocation proceeding and to file a supplemental

brief.

     Although Dorrough conclusionally asserts that the district

court erred in dismissing his petition, he has failed to make any

cogent factual or legal argument on that point and, therefore, he

has failed to brief the only issue for appeal.    See Brinkmann v.

Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir.

1987).   This appeal is without arguable merit; the pending

motions are DENIED and this appeal is DISMISSED as frivolous.

See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983); 5TH CIR.

R. 42.2.

     Dorrough is cautioned that should he, or any counsel on his

behalf, file any further frivolous pleadings relating to his 1963

conviction, in this court or any court subject to the

jurisdiction of this court, he shall be subject to sanctions.    To

avoid sanctions for any matter that may be pending, Dorrough

shall review all pending matters and move to voluntarily dismiss

any that are frivolous.

     MOTIONS DENIED, APPEAL DISMISSED.    SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
