                                   Plaintiffs-Appellants,

                                   Defendants-Appellees.

             Appeal from the United States District Court for
                      the Western District of Texas
                              (02-CV-275)
    _______________________________________________________
                              ON PETITION FOR REHEARING

Before REAVLEY, HIGGINBOTHAM and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

       Appellees point out in their petition for rehearing that the judgment fails to

address the state law claims of Appellant, for invasion of privacy and intentional

infliction of emotional distress and the 42 U.S.C. § 1985 conspiracy claim. Because

these claims were not raised or argued on appeal by Appellant, the judgment of the

district court dismissing them is affirmed.

       The petition for rehearing is granted. The judgment of the district court is

reversed and the cause is remanded only as to the federal privacy invasion claim

under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and 18 U.S.C. § 2510 as well as the state law claim under

TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE § 123.002.

       Affirmed in Part; Reversed in Part. Remanded.

   *
    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 R. 47.5, the Court has determined that this opinion should not be
published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
