ORDER AND JUDGMENT1

1
After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal.  See Fed.  R.App. P. 34(a);  10th Cir.  R. 34.1.9.  The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.


2
This matter is before the court on appellant's application for a certificate of probable cause and request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis.  We issue a certificate of probable cause, grant appellant's request to proceed in forma pauperis, and proceed to the merits of appellant's appeal.


3
This appeal is from the grant of summary judgment in favor of defendants.  It involves miscellaneous claims of violations of the United States Constitution, federal civil rights statutes, and some state law claims arising from acts of the telephone.


4
The trial court properly dismissed the federal claims for lack of state or federal action and the failure to present any evidence of collusive action by any state or federal employees.  Having disposed of the federal claims on which jurisdiction rested, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the pendant state law claims.


5
Appellant's motion for appointment of counsel is denied.  The judgment is AFFIRMED.
