     Barry Lynn Gilmore (Texas prisoner # 621324) seeks in forma

pauperis (IFP) status to appeal the district court's dismissal,

as frivolous, of his civil rights suits alleging deliberate

indifference to his medical needs.   We have reviewed Gilmore's

contentions and the records and determined that his appeals are

frivolous.   28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i).   Therefore leave to

appeal IFP is DENIED and the appeal is DISMISSED.    Gilmore's

motion for the appointment of counsel on appeal is DENIED as

moot.

     IFP DENIED; APPOINTMENT OF COUNSEL DENIED; APPEAL DISMISSED.
