    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

    Lai Bhatia, Washington, MS, pro se.
    
      Angela Givens Williams, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Jackson, MS, for Defendants-Appellees.
    Before SMITH, WIENER, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Lai Bhatia, federal prisoner #97562-011, appeals the dismissal of his complaint alleging violations of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552a, et seq., and the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses and the Separation of Powers Doctrine. The district court dismissed the complaint for failure to state a claim.

We must raise the issue of subject matter jurisdiction sua sponte. Bhatia named several federal agencies as defendants. The district court lacked subject matter jurisdiction over Bhatia’s claims that these agencies violated his constitutional rights because Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971), does not provide a cause of action against a federal agency. F.D.I.C. v. Meyer, 510 U.S. 471, 475, 486, 114 S.Ct. 996, 127 L.Ed.2d 308 (1994). We therefore affirm the district court’s judgment as modified to be for lack of jurisdiction with respect to Bhatia’s constitutional claims against the federal agencies.

We review do novo the district court’s dismissal of Bhatia’s Privacy Act claims and constitutional claims against unnamed individual defendants. See Frame v. City of Arlington, 657 F.3d 215, 222 (5th Cir.2011) (en banc). The district court correctly concluded that the records at issue are exempt under the law enforcement exemption in § 552a(j)(2). The district court also correctly concluded that Bhatia’s Privacy Act claims were barred by Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477, 486-87, 114 S.Ct. 2364, 129 L.Ed.2d 383 (1994), because a favorable decision in the instant case would necessarily imply the invalidity of Bhatia’s convictions. Heck also bars Bhatia’s constitutional claims against the unnamed individual defendants for the same reason. We therefore affirm the district court’s judgment.

AFFIRMED AS MODIFIED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
