Ivery Traveno Williams, pro se, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Tennessee Colony, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellant.
Before KING, Chief Judge, and JOLLY and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Ivery Traveno Williams, Texas prisoner No. 183233, moves this court to supplement the district court record. The motion is DENIED. Williams has appealed the district court's dismissal of his civil rights complaint as frivolous. Williams argues that Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) law librarian Brenda Wilkinson violated his right of access to the courts by denying him face-to-face legal visits with TDCJ inmate James Lewis; that the Texas Parole Board violated his due process rights by reviewing his eligibility for parole every two years instead of annually; that Ms. Wilkinson retaliated against Williams; and that TDCJ Classification Director Sherman Bell assigned Williams to the wrong prison classification and computed his sentence incorrectly.
Williams does not have a right to provide legal assistance to or to receive legal assistance from Inmate Lewis. Bounds v. Smith, 430 U.S. 817, 828, 97 S.Ct. 1491, 52 L.Ed.2d 72 (1976); Tighe v. Wall, 100 F.3d 41, 43 (5th Cir.1996). We do not address Williams's argument concerning the Texas Parole Board because he did not raise this issue in the district court. See Leverette v. Louisville Ladder Co., 183 F.3d 339, 342 (5th Cir.1999). Williams has not offered evidence or alleged a chronology of events that supports his claim that Ms. Wilkinson retaliated against him. Woods v. Smith, 60 F.3d 1161, 1166 (5th Cir.1995). Williams's claims that Mr. Bell assigned him to the wrong prison classification and miscomputed his sentence are not cognizable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 because they implicate the duration of Williams's confinement. Clarke v. Stalder, 154 F.3d 186, 189 (5th Cir.l998)(en banc).
AFFIRMED; MOTION TO SUPPLEMENT THE RECORD DENIED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
