conditions of his confinement. We review a district court’s
award of summary judgment de novo. Banks v. East Baton Rouge
Parish Sch. Bd., 320 F.3d 570, 575 (5th Cir. 2003).
Moore does not challenge the dismissal with prejudice of his
claims against the St. Tammany Parish Jail and the St. Tammany
Parish Sheriff’s Office or the dismissal with prejudice of his
claim under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Accordingly,
those claims have been abandoned. See Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d
222, 224-25 (5th Cir. 1993).
Exhaustion is required for all inmate suits about prison
life. See 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a); Porter v. Nussle, 534 U.S. 516,
524-32 (2002). The district court dismissed without prejudice
Moore’s claims against Warden Peachey in his official capacity
and against Sheriff Jack Strain because Moore had failed to
exhaust his administrative remedies.
The competent summary judgment evidence established that
Moore did not exhaust his administrative remedies. Although
Moore submits on appeal a third step grievance he purportedly
sent to the sheriff, this evidence was not submitted to the
district court and may not be considered. See Theriot v. Parish
of Jefferson, 185 F.3d 477, 491 n.26 (5th Cir. 1999).
Accordingly, the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
