force claims against Officers Keith Bickham, Johnny Gerald, and Rick Warren
were not supported by a preponderance of the evidence. However, Rollins has
not demonstrated that the magistrate judge’s factual and credibility
determinations concerning these claims constituted clear error. See Baldwin v.
Stalder, 137 F.3d 836, 839 (5th Cir. 1998).
Rollins does not challenge the district court’s dismissal of his claims
against the Washington Correctional Institute, Officer Robert Tanner, and
Officer Wayne Kennedy for failure to exhaust administrative remedies or, in the
case of Officer Kennedy, as barred by Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477 (1994).
Accordingly, he has abandoned these claims. See Brinkmann v. Dallas County
Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987).
AFFIRMED; ALL PENDING MOTIONS DENIED.
