Per Curiam. The complaint, which asserted libel in
__________

purely conclusory terms, failed to state a libel claim

because plaintiff did not describe any libelous statement.

Despite warning provided by the magistrate's report that the

complaint was too skeletal, plaintiff failed to remedy the

deficiency. Consequently, the complaint was properly

dismissed, and plaintiff's post-judgment motion was properly

denied.

Affirmed.
