Appeal from the United States District Court for the
Western District of Texas
(CA-Sa-93-966)
______________________________________________
March 15, 1996
Before KING, SMITH, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The plaintiffs appeal the entry of summary judgment for the
defendants in this suit involving Title IX and civil rights claims
that stemmed from allegations of molestation of the plaintiffs'
four minor children during a school-sponsored event. The
appellants' brief does not adequately argue any issue. See Fed. R.
App. R. 28(a)(6). None of the arguments are supported by cites to
the record. Especially absent are any supporting cites to either

Pursuant to Local Rule 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opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under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 Local Rule 47.5.4.
the appellants' own summary judgment evidence or the appellees'
extensive summary judgment evidence. The lack of supporting record
cites in appellants' brief is sufficient, in and of itself, to
dismiss the appeal. See Moore v. FDIC, 993 F.2d 106, 107 (5th Cir.
1993). In addition, appellants' brief presents conclusional,
unsupported arguments and makes vague claims with respect to
matters not before the district court. Finding appellants' brief
wholly inadequate, the appeal is dismissed.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
