                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Eastern District of Texas
                              USDC No. 1:16-CV-84


Before JOLLY, OWEN, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Dewayne Ray Clubb, a former Texas prisoner, appeals the district court’s
dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil suit as frivolous. In his complaint, Clubb
alleged that he was not advised of his rights upon arrest, that his repeated




       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

requests for medication and counsel were ignored, and that he was bullied into
pleading guilty without understanding the effect of his plea.
      This court reviews the dismissal of a frivolous complaint for abuse of
discretion. Rogers v. Boatright, 709 F.3d 403, 407 (5th Cir. 2013). In his brief,
Clubb reasserts the facts supporting his claims but fails to make any reference
to the district court’s reasons for dismissing them. Because Clubb offers no
basis to disagree with the district court’s analysis, any challenge to that ruling
is deemed abandoned on appeal. See Brinkmann v. Dallas Cty. Deputy Sheriff
Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987). Accordingly, the judgment of the
district court is AFFIRMED.
