GARZA, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* The plaintiffs sue, under various statutes, for alleged racial discrimination, retaliation, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The district court found no issues of material fact and granted summary judgment to defen- dants and imposed sanctions on plaintiff and her attorney. We have read the briefs and have heard the arguments of counsel, and have consulted per- tinent portions of the record. On the basis of applicable caselaw and the summary judgment record, we affirm, essentially for the reasons given by the district court. This affirmance goes to both the summary judgment and the sanctions. Defendant Jeanne Martin moves for sanc- tions under FED. R. APP. P. 38 for a frivolous appeal. That motion is GRANTED. Appel- lant and her attorney are assessed, jointly and severally, double costs plus attorney’s fees of $5,000 on appeal. The double costs shall be paid to each respective defendant in the pro- portion that each defendant has incurred costs on appeal. The attorney’s fees shall be paid to Martin. AFFIRMED. * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has deter- mined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. 2
