Before JOLLY, DAVIS and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     George Roland, Jr., Louisiana prisoner # 121494, appeals

from the district court’s denial of his “Motion and Order to

Proceed with Petitioner’s Jury Demand Pursuant to FRCVP Rule 38

in Petitioner’s 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 action.”   Roland contends that

he is entitled to proceed with the § 1983 action he filed with

his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition in November 1990.

       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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
                          No. 05-30432
                               -2-

appeals, which was filed 12 years after his first habeas

proceeding concluded, is an unauthorized motion.     See United

States v. Early, 27 F.3d 140, 142 (5th Cir. 1994).    Accordingly,

his appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.    See id.

     APPEAL DISMISSED; REQUEST FOR A “CERTIFICATE OF PROBABLE

CAUSE” DENIED AS UNNECESSARY.
