   PER CURIAM:

Julia Ann Sookma appeals, pro se, the dismissal of her complaint, claiming defendants conspired with each other and state court judges presiding over divorce and custody proceedings between Sookma and her ex-husband John Sookma to deprive her of various civil rights. Sookma sought damages and to enjoin defendants from enforcing the state court divorce decree.

Under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine, the district court dismissed this action as a collateral attack on the state court decree. See D.C. Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462, 103 S.Ct. 1303, 75 L.Ed.2d 206 (1983); Rooker v. Fidelity Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413, 44 S.Ct. 149, 68 L.Ed. 362 (1923). The district court also determined Sook-ma’s service of process was defective and, for various reasons, dismissal was appropriate on the merits of her claims.

We review de novo a dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. E.g., Musslewhite v. State Bar of Tex., 32 F.3d 942, 945 (5th Cir.1994), cert. denied, 515 U.S. 1103, 115 S.Ct. 2248, 132 L.Ed.2d 256 (1995). We also review de novo a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss being granted for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. Ramming v. United States, 281 F.3d 158, 161 (5th Cir.2001), cert. denied, 536 U.S. 960, 122 S.Ct. 2665, 153 L.Ed.2d 839 (2002).

Sookma asserts conclusionally that the district court applied Rooker- Feldman erroneously. Based on our review of the record and briefs, the district court did not err in applying this doctrine, in the light of the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Saudi Basic Industries Corp. — U.S.-, 125 S.Ct. 1517, 1521-22, 161 L.Ed.2d 454 (2005) (applying the Rooker-Feldman doctrine and confining it to “cases brought by state-court losers complaining of injuries caused by state-court judgments rendered before the district court proceedings commenced and inviting district court review and rejection of those judgments”); see Liedtke v. State Bar of Texas, 18 F.3d 315, 317 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 513 U.S. 906, 115 S.Ct. 271, 130 L.Ed.2d 189 (1994). In any event, Sookma has failed to address the alternate bases for dismissal, including defective service of process, issues of absolute and qualified immunity, and failure to state a claim. By failing to brief these issues, Sookma has abandoned them; it is the same as if she had not appealed the judgment. See Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 225 (5th Cir.1993); Brinkmann v. Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir.1987); Fed. R.App. P. 28(a)(9).

The appeal is without arguable merit and is frivolous. See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir.1983). Because the appeal is frivolous, it is DISMISSED. See 5th CiR. R. 42.2.

DISMISSED 
      
       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.
