ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

STEPHEN H. ANDERSON, Circuit Judge.

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal. *See*Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

This case originated in the District Court for the District of Columbia where Appellant Marc Pierre Hall, a federal inmate, filed his complaint in 1998. The case was subsequently transferred to the *926District of Colorado, and was transferred again to the United States District Court for the District of Kansas. Along the way, various parties and claims were dismissed until the Kansas district court dismissed the remaining claims without prejudice on March 30, 2004.

At the time of the transfer to the Kansas district court, the only defendants remaining in the case were Tucker, Moss, and Hughes, three officers of the United States Penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kansas (subsequently and collectively “Appellees”). Hall sought monetary damages against the officers, claiming they had violated his rights under the Eighth Amendment by assaulting him or failing to intervene to protect him from harm. Appellees moved for summary judgment on the basis that Hall had not properly exhausted his administrative remedies as required by 42 U.S.C. § 19976.1 Appellees argued that the Supreme Court’s opinion in *Booth v. Churner,*532 U.S. 731, 121 S.Ct. 1819, 149 L.Ed.2d 958 (2001), required exhaustion, and that *Booth*overturned this court’s ruling in *Garrett v. Hawk,*127 F.3d 1263, 1267 (10th Cir.1997), that exhaustion was not required.2

In his response, Hall acknowledged *Booth*and agreed that *Booth*required inmates seeking only monetary damages to exhaust their administrative remedies, but argued that the holding in *Garrett*had “led [him] to believe that he could in good faith file for money damages in a civil action without exhaustion of remedies” and that *Booth*should be applied only prospectively and not to “pending civil actions filed in accord with the law that existed ... some six years prior [to *Booth}”*to avoid “a discrimination of due process of law and equal protection of the laws and substantial prejudice.” R. Doc. 83 at 2.

A month after filing his response, Hall filed a “Motion to Expand the Record with New Evidence as to the Administrative Remedies” in which he sought to present documents “as evidence against the summary judgment Motion of [Appellees].” R. Doc. 85 at 1. He asserted that such evidence “clearly showfed] that the remedy had been exhausted under another civil suit of ‘Continuous Torts.’ ” *Id.*Attached to the motion, inter alia, were a number of administrative claims and appeals to Bureau of Prison officials of all levels, which had been denied or rejected, due to mostly procedural defects, failure to timely file administrative claims, and failure to attach proof of prior administrative complaints.3

*927The district court, relying on *Harper v. Virginia Department of Taxation,*509 U.S. 86, 113 S.Ct. 2510, 125 L.Ed.2d 74 (1993), held that it had to give full effect to the Supreme Court’s decision in *Booth.*R. Doc. 95 at 3. The court also found “no merit to [Hall’s] subsequent attempt to exhaust administrative remedies in December 2002,” but granted his motion to expand the record to include the documents. *Id.*The court concluded that the documents “offer[ed] no legal support to [Hall’s] showing of ... exhaustion.” *Id.*The district court granted Appellees’ motion for summary judgment on the ground that Hall failed to exhaust his administrative remedies. *Id.*at 4.

On appeal, Hall reprises his district court argument that *Booth*should not have been applied to his case to dismiss his claim against Appellees.4

The district court was correct in its reliance on *Harper: “*“When [the Supreme] Court applies a rule of federal law to the parties before it, that rule is the controlling interpretation of federal law and must be given full retroactive effect in all cases still open on direct review and as to all events, regardless of whether such events predate or postdate [the] announcement of the rule.’ ” *Talley v. Hesse,*91 F.3d 1411, 1413 (10th Cir.1996) (quoting *Harper,*509 U.S. at 97, 113 S.Ct. 2510). Therefore, upon review of the parties’ briefs and the record before us, we AFFIRM the district court’s order and judgment granting Appellees’ motion for summary judgment and dismissing all remaining claims in the complaint without prejudice, for substantially the reasons stated in its May 30, 2004, order. We remind defendant that he remains obligated to make partial payments on his filing fee until the fee is paid. The mandate shall issue forthwith.

 This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. The court generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.

1

. 42 U.S.C. § 1997e reads, in pertinent part:

> (a) Applicability of administrative remedies No action shall be brought with respect to prison conditions under section 1983 of this title, or any other Federal law, by a prisoner confined in any jail, prison, or other correctional facility until such administrative remedies as are available are exhausted.

> (c) Dismissal

> (1) The court shall on its own motion or on the motion of a party dismiss any action brought with respect to prison conditions under section 1983 of this title, or any other Federal law, by a prisoner confined in any jail, prison, or other correctional facility if the court is satisfied that the action is ffivolous, malicious, fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, or seeks monetary relief from a defendant who is immune from such relief.

2

. The plaintiff in *Garrett*had also sought only monetary relief against individual officers for alleged violations of his constitutional rights and this court held that, although 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a) required the exhaustion of “such administrative remedies as are *available,"*(emphasis added), since no administrative remedy would provide monetary relief, exhaustion was not required. *Garrett,*127 F.3d at 1266-67.

3

. The appeals that were rejected due to procedural defects specifically allowed resubmis*927sion within fifteen days of the rejection, but there is no evidence the appeals were resubmitted.

4

. The authority provided by Hall as support for his argument that *Booth*should not be applied is not on point in that the cited cases address the retroactive application of statutes, not the temporal scope of an interpretation of a statute by the Supreme Court.

Hall also makes three brief references apparently to his submission to the district court of his various administrative claims and appeals. Considering the exceedingly brief and nearly unintelligible treatment given to these references and the lack of any supporting authority, we do not read these references as an attempt to appeal the district court’s factual finding that Hall failed to exhaust his administrative claims. If it was Hall’s intention to so appeal, he failed to properly raise such a claim, even in light of the considerable latitude given to pro se appellants. *See Murrell v. Shalala,*43 F.3d 1388, 1389-90 n. 2 (10th Cir.1994); *Phillips v. Calhoun,*956 F.2d 949, 953-54 (10th Cir.1992). Even a pro se appellant must clearly apprise the court that he believes a reversible error has been made and make an argument with authority supporting such a belief.
