VERSUS
CITY OF LAKE CHARLES; DAVID ALVIN VARNADO;
LOCAL 1524 UNION,
Defendants-Appellees.
Appeal from the United States District Court
For the Western District of Louisiana, Lake Charles Division
(00-CV-2483)
August 2, 2001

Alvin Washington has appealed the district court’s dismissal
of his civil rights complaint alleging that he was wrongfully
terminated as an employee of the City of Lake Charles, Louisiana.

The district court dismissed the complaint without prejudice on the
basis that it repeated claims raised by Washington in another case
pending before the district court. Washington does not dispute the
district court’s determination that his complaint was duplicative.
The appeal is therefore dismissed as frivolous pursuant to Fifth
Circuit Rule 42.2. See Pittman v. Moore, 980 F.2d 994, 995 (5th
Cir. 1993)
APPEAL DISMISSED
