PER CURIAM:*

Archie P. Tobias, Jr., #583391, a Texas state prisoner, moves for leave to appeal in forma

pauperis (IFP) from the district court's grant of summary judgment to the defendants in his civil

rights suit. Tobias contends that he raised genuine issues relevant to his various medical, work,

and disciplinary claims. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. See Tobias v.
