______________________________ ______ Submitted for Possible Dismissal Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) or Summary Action Pursuant to Third Circuit LAR 27.4 and I.O.P. 10.6 July 25, 2019
Before: CHAGARES, RESTREPO and SCIRICA , Circuit Judges

(Opinion filed : September 23, 2019 )2 _________ OPINION *

_________ PER CURIAM Lynne Thompson appeals the District Court’s order dismissing her complaint . For the reasons below, we will summarily affirm the District Court’s order. Thompson has multiple convictions for theft. Several of these convictions have been the grounds for revocations of parole and probation

. In her complaint, Thompson
asserted that she was wrongfully arrested on March 8, 2017 and detained pursuant to a detainer by the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole. She b elieved that her
criminal sentence s should have “maxed out” and she should have been released on August 25, 2017. She also complained of a detainer placed on her on May 17, 2018. Thompson request ed damages for the alleged wrongful incarceration

. A Magist rate Judge recommended that the complaint be dismissed for failure to state a claim because Thompson’s claims were barred by Heck v. Humphrey , 512 U.S. 477 (1994). The District Court adopted the Report and Recommendation and dismissed the complaint. Thom pson filed a timely notice of appeal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Our review of the dismissal of the complaint for failure to state a claim is plenary

. See Tourscher v. McCullough , 184

* This disposition is not an opinion of the full C ourt and pursuant to I.O.P. 5.7 does not constitute binding precedent.3

F.3d 236, 240 (3d Cir. 1999)

. I n Heck , the Su preme Court held that a state prisoner’s claim for damages is not cognizable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 if it calls into question the lawfulness of her conviction or confinement, unless she can demonstrate that the conviction or sentence has already been inval idated. 512 U.S.at 486

– 87. We have
extended the rule in Heck to parole revoc ations. See Williams v. Consovoy , 453 F.3d 173, 177 (3d Cir. 2006). Here, Thompson complains of detention beginning on March 8, 2017. According to paperwork Thompson submitte d to the District Court, she received a notice of a revocation hearing based on two new criminal convictions. The notice indicated that Thompson was arrested on March 8, 2017 and July 14, 2017, on charges of theft by deception and was later convicted of t hese charges on April 30, 2018, in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County. 1 Thompson has not alleged that the convictions or
revocations underlying the detention she challenges have been invalidated. As a result , her claims are barred by Heck , and t he District Court did not err in dismissing her complaint for failure to state a claim. Summary action is appropriate if there is no substantial question presented in the appeal. See 3d Cir. LAR 27.4. For the reaso ns set forth above, we will summarily affirm the District Court’s order. See 3d Cir. I.O.P. 10.6.

1 According to the electronic docket available online, Thompson pleaded guilty. She was sentenced to five years of probation.
