Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Louisiana
USDC No. 99-CV-579
--------------------
June 14, 2000
Before JOLLY, DAVIS, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) detainee Ghulam
Mohammed Nasim (# 57187) moves this court for appointment of
appellate counsel. The motion is DENIED. Nasim appeals the
district court’s dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 suit as time-
barred, but he implicitly concedes that his complaint was not
filed within the applicable one-year limitation period. See

Owens v. Okure, 488 U.S. 235, 243-48 (1989); Elzy v. Roberson,
868 F.2d 793, 794-95 (5th Cir. 1989); LA. CIV. CODE ANN. art. 3492
(West 2000). We find no merit to Nasim’s argument that his
claims should be deemed to relate back to a prior lawsuit.
Accordingly, the dismissal of the complaint is AFFIRMED.
AFFIRMED; MOTION FOR COUNSEL DENIED. MOTION TO STAY FURTHER
PROCEEDINGS IN THIS COURT IS MOOT IN LIGHT OF THE OPINION.
