Betty DOUGIA, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Howard D. GRAVES, etc.; et al, Defendants, Dr. Robert D. McTeer, Chancellor of the Texas A & M University System; Jim Hull, individually and as Director of Texas Forest Service; Bobby Young; Gary Bennett; Rodney Monk, Defendants-Appellees, 181 F. App'x 438

PER CURIAM: Betty Dougia appeals the district court’s grant of

summary judgment for the defendants in her suit filed under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Dougia alleged that her rights were violated under the United States Constitution and the Texas Constitution. Dougia asserted that she entered into a contractual agreement with a logger to remove timber from her property. Following the removal, she felt as though she was not properly compensated. Dougia called the Timber Theft hotline of the Texas Forest Service (TFS) and requested an investigation into the matter.

The investigation was delayed, and the report that was compiled after the investigation concluded that she had been overpaid by the logger. Dougia alleged that the report was compiled in bad faith. The district court dismissed two defendants without prejudice because they were never served. The court granted the other defendants’ motion for

summary judgment, concluding that Dougia failed to show a constitutional violation under the Fifth or Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution or the Takings Clause of the Texas Constitution. The court noted that Dougia did not contend that the defendants interfered with or took her property for public purposes without just compensation. In the alternative, assuming for the sake of argument that Dougia had established a constitutional deprivation, the district court found that the remaining defendants were entitled to qualified immunity.

On appeal, Dougia does not challenge the dismissal of her complaint as to the defendants who were not served. Nor does she challenge the finding of qualified immunity as to any defendant with the exception of Rodney Monk. Accordingly, all arguments regarding these findings of the district court are waived. See Hughes v. Johnson, 191 F.3d 607, 613 (5th Cir.1999). Dougia argues that the district court erred in granting

summary judgment because there is a genuine issue of material fact regarding Monk’s good faith. Dougia acknowledges that the state government did not take her property; she contends, in a one-sentence argument, that the TFS is responsible for the alleged taking because Monk filed a report that was not compiled in good faith. Monk’s good faith is irrelevant, however; the district court granted

summary judgment because Dougia did not prove any constitutional violations under either federal or state law. Dougia does not seriously challenge this finding on appeal and admits that her property was not taken by the state. As such, Dougia has waived any argument that she proved a constitutional violation. See Hughes, 191 F.3d at 613. Alternatively, she has not shown that the district court erred in granting

summary judgment on grounds that she had not proved a constitutional violation. The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 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 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
