TENTH CIRCUIT

JAMES JOSEPH OWENS-EL, 		
		Plaintiff - Appellant,	No. 01-1254	
v.	(D.C. No. 01-Z-405)	
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 	(D. Colorado)	
		Defendant - Appellee.		

ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

Before SEYMOUR and McKAY, Circuit Judges, and BRORBY, Senior Circuit Judge.

	After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal.  See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G).  The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.
	Mr. Owens-El appeals the district court’s dismissal of his Bivens claim and his tort claims brought pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act.  In essence, Mr. Owens-El seeks monetary damages resulting from his allegedly illegal incarceration.  Additionally, Mr. Owens-El challenges the district court’s denial of standing for Mr. Owens-El to prosecute claims under various criminal statutes.  
	We have reviewed Mr. Owens-El’s claims and the district court’s Order and  Judgment of Dismissal filed April 9, 2001.  We are convinced that the district court’s decision is correct.  For the same reasons as those stated in the district court’s Order and Judgment of Dismissal, we affirm.
	The motion to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis is granted.
	AFFIRMED.
