Brandon Scott LAVERGNE, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Brook Megan BROUSSARD, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 14-30308
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    June 13, 2014.
    Brandon Scott Lavergne, Angola, LA, pro se.
    Before KING, DAVIS, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

The district court correctly held that it lacked diversity jurisdiction over Plaintiff-Appellant Brandon Scott Lavergne’s suit pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332. Even if the district court had possessed jurisdiction, Lavergne’s claims would have failed under Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477, 114 S.Ct. 2364, 129 L.Ed.2d 383 (1994). The district court’s dismissal of Lavergne’s suit is AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
