                           ORDER AND JUDGMENT *

*
       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)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is
                                                                       (continued...)
Before HENRY, McKAY, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.


      Bernard Horne, a state prisoner appearing pro se, brought this lawsuit under

42 U.S.C. § 1983 against twenty-eight prison officials alleging they

(1) deliberately destroyed his property (and state court post-deprivation

proceedings on this issue were inadequate); (2) retaliated against him for

practicing his religion; (3) illegally seized his blood for DNA testing; (4) labeled

him a sex offender without due process; (5) treated white inmates better than

black inmates and hindered his ability to work on legal filings by removing two

books from the law library; and (6) restricted his privileges for refusing to submit

to tuberculosis testing. 1 The district court adopted the magistrate judge’s


*
 (...continued)
therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. This order and judgment is
not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata,
and collateral estoppel. The court generally disfavors the citation of orders and
judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under the terms and
conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.

       Defendant Frank Ruybalid proceeded separately from the other
twenty-seven defendants. Mr. Horne’s notice of appeal and docketing statement
list Mr. Ruybalid as a party to this appeal, but Mr. Horne’s opening brief does not
take issue with the district court’s ruling for Mr. Ruybalid, thereby waiving any
such challenge. See State Farm Fire & Cas. Co. v. Mhoon, 31 F.3d 979, 984 n.7
(10th Cir. 1994) (stating appellant’s failure to raise issue in opening brief waives
the point). Likewise, even though Mr. Horne identifies defendants as parties to
this appeal in their official capacities, his opening brief fails to raise and therefore
waives any argument that the district court erred in dismissing Mr. Horne’s
official-capacity claims. See id.

                                          -2-
recommendation that defendants’ Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) motion be granted in

part and denied in part. Thereafter, the magistrate judge recommended that

defendants’ summary judgment motion on Mr. Horne’s remaining claims be

granted in part and denied in part; the district court, however, granted the

summary judgment motion in its entirety. Judgment was entered for all

defendants on all claims. This appeal followed. We have jurisdiction under 28

U.S.C. § 1291 and affirm. 2

      We review de novo a district court’s ruling on a Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6)

motion. Hartman v. Kickapoo Tribe Gaming Comm’n, 319 F.3d 1230, 1234

(10th Cir. 2003). We will affirm a district court’s grant of a 12(b)(6) motion

when “it appears beyond doubt that the plaintiff can prove no set of facts in

support of his claim which would entitle him to relief.” Id. (quotation omitted).

We also reveiw de novo a district court’s summary judgment ruling, using the

same standard as the district court under Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c). Id. Thus, we will

affirm the grant of summary judgment when “there is no genuine issue as to any

material fact and . . . the moving party is entitled to a judgment as a matter of

law.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c).

       Although we recognize that Mr. Horne is proceeding pro se, he failed to
attach to his appellate brief those documents required by 10th Cir. R. 28.2(A)(1).
We admonish appellees’ counsel for not complying with 10th Cir. R. 28.2(B),
which requires the appellee to include with his brief all relevant rulings not
attached to the appellant’s brief.

                                         -3-
      On appeal, Mr. Horne challenges the district court’s rulings for defendants

and against him on each of the six claims listed above. 3 Having reviewed the

briefs, the record, and the applicable law pursuant to the above-mentioned

standards, we conclude that Mr. Horne has not shown any reversible error in this

case. We therefore AFFIRM the challenged decisions for substantially the same

reasons as stated in the magistrate judge’s recommendation dated March 3, 2003

(R. Doc. 93), and in the district court’s orders dated April 23, 2003 (R. Doc. 109)

and May 9, 2005 (R. Doc. 249). Further, we remind Mr. Horne that he must

continue making partial payments until the entire balance of the appellate filing

fee is paid. The mandate shall issue forthwith.

       Mr. Horne’s complaint contained eight claims. On appeal he identifies and
argues only the six we listed. The two claims he has not addressed in his opening
brief are waived. See State Farm, 31 F.3d at 984 n.7.
