          Appeal from the United States District Court

                       --------------------

Before DeMOSS, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Rodolfo Rivera Munoz appeals the dismissal of a federal case

seeking both habeas corpus relief and civil rights redress

against a wide-ranging group of defendants.   Though he has

provided a comprehensive account of the subjugation of the

autochthonous peoples of the southwestern United States, he has

        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.

brief them.   Brinkmann v. Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 

, 748 (5th Cir. 1987).    To the extent that Munoz argues

that he is subjected to custody as a member of the subjugated

native population, Munoz has failed to allege a factual basis

sufficient to support a finding of particularized treatment or

custody.   See Campbell v. City of San Antonio, 

, 975

(5th Cir. 1995).   Therefore, the district court’s dismissal of

his complaint is AFFIRMED.
