It is difficult to discern any logical or reasonable meaning from the allegations of the plaintiff’s complaint, but at best it appears to be frivolous and plainly barred by the doctrine of official immunity as set forth in a number of cases.

See Barr v. Matteo, 360 U.S. 564 , 79 S.Ct. 1335 , 3 L.Ed.2d 1434 (1959); Norton v. McShane, 332 F.2d 855 (5th Cir. 1964), cert. denied, 380 U.S. 981 , 85 S.Ct. 1345 , 14 L.Ed.2d 274 ; United States v. Faneca, 332 F.2d 872 (5th Cir. 1964).

In our opinion the appeal is frivolous and the same is hereby dismissed.
