    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

    George L. Rosas, Lamesa, TX, pro se.
    Kurt Brian Chadwell, Corpus Christi, TX, Robert E. Henneke, Office of the Attorney General for the State of Texas, Austin, TX, for Defendants-Appellees.
    Before SMITH, WIENER, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

George Rosas, a Texas prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis (“IFP”), filed a civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1988 against Patsy Perez, Clerk of Court for Nueces County, and Cathy Pope Clark, Assistant Attorney General — Child Support Division, in their individual, not official, capacities. Rosas alleges that he did not receive notice of the outcome of a paternity action in which he was involved and that he was not informed that the documents he submitted had been filed in the paternity case. He asserts that Perez and Clark conspired to prevent him from receiving the notices. The district court dismissed under Fed.R.CivP. 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim. A district court’s ruling on a rule 12(b)(6) motion for failure to state a claim is subject to de novo review. Scanlan v. Texas A&M University, 343 F.3d 533, 536 (5th Cir.2003).

The court dismissed the claim that Perez and Clark conspired to deprive Rosas of his opportunity to litigate his paternity suit, because the claim was based solely on conclusional allegations that were unsupported by any specific factual allegations. On appeal, Rosas has not alleged any factual basis supporting his claims. The district court did not err in finding that Rosas’s conclusional allegations are insufficient to state a claim. See Fernandez-Montes v. Allied Pilots Ass’n, 987 F.2d 278, 284 (5th Cir.1993).

The court also did not err in granting the motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim without giving Rosas leave to amend. Schultea v. Wood, 27 F.3d 1112, 1118 (5th Cir.1994) (quoting Jacquez v. Procunier, 801 F.2d 789, 792 (5th Cir.1986)); see also Jones v. Greninger, 188 F.3d 322, 326-27 (5th Cir.1999).

Rosas’s motion for appointment of counsel on appeal is denied. See Akasike v. Fitzpatrick, 26 F.3d 510, 512 (5th Cir. 1994); Cupit v. Jones, 835 F.2d 82, 86 (5th Cir.1987).

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       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
