          Appeal from the United States District Court
                for the Eastern District of Texas
                       USDC No. 1:00-CV-728

                          August 23, 2001

Before KING, Chief Judge, and POLITZ and PARKER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Tommy Earl Boone, Jr., Texas prisoner # 283484, appeals the

district court’s dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action as

frivolous pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i).    Boone

contends that the judges of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals

and West Publishing conspired to fraudulently misinterpret Texas

parole laws.   The district court did not abuse its discretion in

determining that Boone’s allegations were delusional.     Siglar v.

Hightower, 112 F.3d 191, 193 (5th Cir. 1997).   Boone argues that

     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
                            No. 01-40015
                                 -2-

the district court did not conduct de novo review of his

objections.    The district court’s memorandum order specifically

states that the court has conducted de novo review.    No more is

required.    Koetting v. Thompson, 995 F.2d 37, 40 (5th Cir. 1993).

Boone argues that the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA) is

unconstitutional for requiring him to pay the full costs of

litigation and then allowing dismissal of his complaint as

frivolous.    The PLRA provisions that require a prisoner to pay

the full appellate filing fee in installments are constitutional.

Norton v. Dimazana, 122 F.3d 286, 290 (5th Cir. 1997).

     Boone’s appeal is without arguable merit and is frivolous.

See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983).

Because the appeal is frivolous, it is DISMISSED.     See 5th Cir.

R. 42.2.    Boone’s motion to impeach this court’s precedents is

DENIED.

     Boone is hereby informed that the dismissal of this appeal

as frivolous counts as a strike for purposes of 28 U.S.C.

§ 1915(g), in addition to the strike for the district court’s

dismissal.    See Adepegba v. Hammons, 103 F.3d 383, 387 (5th Cir.

1996) (“[D]ismissals as frivolous in the district courts or the

court of appeals count [as strikes] for the purposes of

[§ 1915(g)].”).    We caution Boone that once he accumulates three

strikes, he may not proceed IFP in any civil action or appeal

filed while he is incarcerated or detained in any facility unless

he is under imminent danger of serious physical injury.     See 28

U.S.C. § 1915(g).

     APPEAL DISMISSED AS FRIVOLOUS; MOTION DENIED.
