Before LOURIE, LINN, and MOORE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

       Charles W. Parker (“Parker”) appeals a final judgment of the United States

District Court for the District of Columbia dismissing his patent infringement action

against Microsoft Corporation as frivolous. Parker v. Microsoft Corp., No. 06-CV-00540

(D.D.C. Mar. 23, 2006). We review a district court’s frivolousness determination for an

abuse of discretion. Denton v. Hernadez, 504 U.S. 24, 32 (1992). Parker’s allegations

that he has patented the “elemental atom” and that Microsoft has infringed his rights by

using and improperly claiming inventorship of such an invention are “fanciful,”

“fantastic,” and “delusional” contentions supporting the district court’s determination. Id.

at 33-34. On appeal, Parker provides us with no persuasive basis to conclude that the

district court abused its discretion in dismissing the action. We affirm.
