                        September 30, 1996
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, WIENER, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Moses Charles Everett appeals from the dismissal as

frivolous of his civil rights complaint, in which he alleged that

the defendants violated his equal protection rights by denying

him the opportunity to participate in an emergency work detail

because he was serving a sentence for a sex offense.   We have

reviewed the record and Everett’s brief and AFFIRM the district

court’s dismissal for essentially the same reasons adopted by the

district court.   Everett v. Lucas, No. 4:94CV214-B-B (N.D. Miss.

Apr. 1, 1996).

     AFFIRMED.

     *
        Pursuant to Local Rule 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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 Local Rule
47.5.4.
