                           May 18, 2001

Before JONES, DeMOSS, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

          Anthony L. Jones appeals the district court’s summary-

judgment dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint, specifically

the dismissal of his claim of malicious prosecution.1

          This court has carefully considered the appeal in light

of the briefs and pertinent portions of the record.      Having done

     *
      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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
     1
      He has waived any argument that the district court erred in
dismissing his false-arrest claim by failing to brief it.     See
Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 224-25 (5th Cir. 1983).
so, we find no reversible error of law or fact in the trial court’s

grant of summary judgment based on qualified immunity.

          AFFIRMED.
