ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

Before KELLY, BRISCOE, and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.**

Mr. Lee, appearing pro se and in forma pauperis, appeals from the district court's dismissal without prejudice of his civil rights action against Defendant Wayne Lossman. He does not contest the dismissal with prejudice of Defendant Judge Henry based upon absolute judicial immunity. Mr. Lee contends that his suit for damages against the county jailer is not barred by Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477, 486-87 (1994), as the district court so held.

According to the complaint, Mr. Lee was sentenced to serve 30 days consecutive to any county sentence. He alleges that there was no county sentence, yet he was required to serve extra time from July 27, 2001 to August 15, 2001. He faults the judge for illegally ordering a consecutive sentence and the jailer for carrying it out. R. Doc. 1 at 3, 5. This action is premature under Heck because it would imply the invalidity of the sentence pronounced by the state judge and executed by the county jailer. 512 U.S. at 486-87. Thus, we affirm for substantially the same reasons relied upon by the district court.

AFFIRMED. Mr. Lee is reminded that he must make partial payments until the entire balance of the appellate filing fee is paid.
