No. 14-60163

Before REAVLEY, SMITH, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

David Payne, Mississippi prisoner # 08755, appeals the dismissal of his 

civil complaint. He also moves for the appointment of counsel and waiver of 

filing fees and for a default judgment and sanctions.

In his brief, Payne uses abusive language regarding the district court 

and the magistrate judge. He was warned in another case that doing so could 

result in sanctions. See Payne v. Epps, No. 11-60257 (5th Cir. Sept. 28, 2011). 

Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED with prejudice. See Theriault v. Silber, 

579 F.2d 302, 304 (5th Cir. 1978). Payne is WARNED that any future frivolous 

or abusive filings in this court or any court subject to this court’s jurisdiction 

will subject him to additional sanctions and that he should review all pending 

matters to ensure that they are not frivolous or abusive. All of Payne’s pending 

motions are DENIED. 

The district court’s dismissal counts as a strike under 28 U.S.C. 

§ 1915(g). Payne has at least one other strike. See Payne v. Stone, 

No. 4:98-CV-94 (N.D. Miss. May 5, 1998). He is WARNED that if he accumulates three strikes, he will not be allowed to proceed IFP in any civil action or 

appeal while incarcerated or detained in any facility unless he is under imminent danger of serious physical injury. See § 1915(g).

* 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.
