    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Feb. 18, 2004.
    Before HIGGINBOTHAM, EMILIO M. GARZA, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Plaintiffs-appellants Gale Greenstreet and Judy Lawrence, Texas residents, appeal from the district court’s “Notice of Deficiency” striking their notice to remove an action from a Texas county court. The court indicated that it was striking the plaintiffs’ notice of removal because they had failed to file the necessary state-court papers, had failed to file individual notices of removal, and had failed to pay sanctions that had been imposed upon them.

The plaintiffs now summarily argue that, in striking their notice of removal, the district court abused its discretion, committed “judicial error,” entered a “biased and prejudicial ruling,” and acted in an “individual capacity.” They provide virtually no citations to the record or to relevant legal authority. They have not adequately briefed their challenges to the validity of the district court’s order striking their notice of removal, and we will not consider their arguments. Grant v. Cuellar, 59 F.3d 523, 524 (5th Cir.1995); Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 225 (5th Cir.1993). The appeal is frivolous, and it is DISMISSED. Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir.1983); 5th Cir. R. 42.2.

Plaintiff Lawrence’s motion for substitution of parties is DENIED as unnecessary.

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       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
