Before JONES, WIENER, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Barney Joe Donalson, Jr., a/k/a Damon Downs, (“Donalson”),
Texas prisoner # 423754, appeals the district court’s denial of

sanctioned Donalson, who then used the name Damon Henry Downs,
stating:

No. 03-20151
-2-
Downs may file no initial pleading in this court or
in any court subject to the jurisdiction of this court,
except with the advance written permission of a judge of
the forum court. Before filing any appeal or other
action in this court, Downs shall submit to the clerk of
this court a request for permission to file, together
with the document that he proposes to file, which the
clerk shall direct to an active judge of this court. In
requesting the required permission in this court or in
any court in this circuit, Downs shall inform the court
of the bar stated herein.
In re Downs, No. 95-50282 (5th Cir. June 27, 1995) (unpublished).
Donalson did not seek the permission specified in the foregoing
opinion prior to filing the appeal of the district court’s order.
Accordingly, we dismiss the instant appeal as having been filed
improvidently.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
