                             USDC No. 4:17-CV-3683


Before SOUTHWICK, HAYNES, and HO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Ralph W. Rogers, Sr., Texas prisoner # 493394, filed a civil rights action
in the district court complaining inter alia of poor cell conditions and


       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not

inadequate medical care. The district court denied Rogers’s request for leave
to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) and dismissed the complaint because Rogers
is subject to the three-strikes bar of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). Rogers now moves
this court for leave to proceed IFP on appeal.
      The record shows and Rogers does not dispute that he has three strikes
under § 1915(g); thus, to proceed IFP on appeal, he must show that he “is under
imminent danger of serious physical injury.”        § 1915(g); see Adepegba v.
Hammons, 103 F.3d 383, 388 (5th Cir. 1996). Rogers has not satisfied this
standard.
      Also pending are Rogers’s requests for an injunction pending appeal and
emergency medical release and motions requesting that the court take “judicial
notice” of his deteriorating medical conditions and other matters, for an
evidentiary hearing, and for the appointment of counsel. These motions are
DENIED.
      The motion for leave to proceed IFP on appeal is DENIED. The appeal
is DISMISSED AS FRIVOLOUS. See Baugh v. Taylor, 117 F.3d 197, 202
& n.24 (5th Cir. 1997); 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
