With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". 202 (1986); Eason v. Thaler, 73 F.3d 1322, 1325 (5th Cir.1996). Also, while Taylor contends that the district court erred by not allowing him to conduct discovery regarding his retaliation claim, he fails to show how the additional discovery was necessary to establish an issue of material fact that would preclude summary judgment. See King v. Dogan, 31 F.3d 344, 346 (5th Cir.1994). He therefore does not establish that the district court abused its discretion in denying discovery. See id. The dismissal of this appeal as frivolous counts as a strike under § 1915(g), as does the district court’s partial dismissal as frivolous. See § 1915(g); Adepegba v. Hammons, 103 F.3d 383, 387-88 (5th Cir.1996); see also Coleman v. Tollefson, — U.S. -, 135 S.Ct. 1759, 1763-64, 191 L.Ed.2d 803 (2015) (<HOLDING>); Patton v. Jefferson Correctional Center, 136
