                             USDC No. 3:05-CV-653

Before JONES, Chief Judge, and GARWOOD and JOLLY, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Robert Crow appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment

R. 47.5.4.
                                 No. 07-40202

found probable cause lacking under the facts of this case, and Defendants are
therefore entitled to qualified immunity. Babb v. Dorman, 33 F.3d 472, 477 (5th
Cir. 1994). We likewise find no abuse of discretion in the award of costs to
Defendants. The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
