Terry W. Sasser, Dr., Amarillo, TX, pro se.
Before JOLLY, WIENER, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Terry W. Sasser, pro se, appeals the district court's order denying his "Original Motion for Leave to File 'Justicable Controversy Writ' 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1)(B) (2000) Pursuant to the Futility Doctrine." The district court noted that, insofar as Sasser is seeking federal collateral relief, he must first exhaust all of his claims in state court and present his claims on the appropriate form for federal habeas actions.
Sasser's brief fails to demonstrate any basis for reversal of the district court's order. His appeal is utterly without merit and frivolous. Accordingly, it is DISMISSED. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2. Sasser's motion for bail pending appeal is 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Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
