No. 13-30488
state defendants under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 seeking money damages and immediate release from confinement based on an alleged miscalculation of his sentence. The allegations are virtually identical to those in another federal suit
that was dismissed and not appealed. Here, the district court adopted the
report and recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissed with prejudice, primarily on the ground of res judicata.
As the magistrate judge said, quoting Wilson v. Lynaugh, 878 F.2d 846,
850 (5th Cir. 1980), “IFP complaints may be dismissed as frivolous . . . when
they seek to relitigate claims which allege substantially the same facts arising
from a common series of events which have already been unsuccessfully litigated by the IFP plaintiff.” The judgment of dismissal is AFFIRMED. All
pending motions are DENIED.
