Per Curiam: *
John Harrison, Louisiana prisoner # 124940 and proceeding pro se , appeals the dismissal without prejudice of his action seeking relief under 42 *2 Case: 21-30522 Document: 00516254125 Page: 2 Date Filed: 03/25/2022
No. 21-30522 U.S.C. § 1983. The dismissal was based on Harrison’s failure to follow the court’s order to, inter alia , correct deficiencies in his complaint.
Harrison’s brief on appeal, however, addresses only the merits of his claim, rather than the court’s reason for dismissing his action. Accordingly, he has abandoned any challenge to the court’s judgment. E.g. , Brinkmann v. Dallas Cnty. Deputy Sheriff Abner , 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987) (noting our court “will not raise and discuss legal issues that [appellant] has failed to assert”).
AFFIRMED .
