PER CURIAM:*

     Plaintiff-appellant Lillie M. Shelby appeals the district

court’s grant of summary judgment for defendant-appellee, Jon A.

Gegenheimer, in his capacity as Clerk of Court for Jefferson

     *
      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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
Parish.   The district court provided a full statement of its

reasons for the decision in its Order and Reasons.    Each of the

arguments made on appeal by appellant is addressed and correctly

disposed of by the district court in its Order and Reasons.    We

therefore affirm for essentially the reasons given by the district

court.

     AFFIRMED.
