MICHAEL REEVES

v.
EMILY FLORES, SARAH MEDFORD
Defendants - Appellees
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 3:05-CV-2003
--------------------
Before KING, HIGGINBOTHAM, and GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Michael Reeves appeals the dismissal of his civil rights
suit against employees of the Texas Department of Insurance’s
Division of Worker’s Compensation. The district court dismissed
the suit as frivolous due to Reeves’s failure to pay the court
costs owed in an identical action he previously filed against the
defendants. Reeves fails to brief the basis for the district
court’s dismissal of his suit. He moves this court for leave to
proceed in forma pauperis (IFP), and the appellees move for a
summary affirmance of the district court’s judgment.

No. 06-10330
-2-
The district court certified that the appeal is not taken in
good faith under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3). Reeves’s appeal is
without arguable merit and is frivolous. See Howard v. King, 707
F.2d 215, 220 (5th Cir. 1983). We deny IFP and dismiss the
appeal. See Baugh v. Taylor, 119 F.3d 197, 202 n.24 (5th Cir.
1997); 5TH CIR. R. 42.2. The appellees’ motion for summary
affirmance is denied as unnecessary.
We caution Reeves that the use of “disrespectful and
impertinent references to the trial judge” will not be permitted
in documents filed with this court. Such comments invite the
striking of the documents in which they are contained. See
Theriault v. Silber, 574 F.2d 197, 197 (5th Cir. 1978).
IFP DENIED; APPEAL DISMISSED; SANCTION WARNING ISSUED.
