¶1 Willie Allen, Louisiana prisoner # 73041, appeals from the dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action as frivolous and for failure to state a claim. Allen sought compensatory and punitive damages in the district court for his alleged exclusion from the call-out list for Muslim services.
¶2 A prisoner may not maintain a First Amendment action for compensatory damages absent any physical injury, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(e)’s physical injury requirement. Geiger v. Jowers, 404 F.3d 371, 374-75 (5th Cir.2005). Nor has Allen shown the “evil intent” or “callous indifference” required to obtain punitive damages. *277 See Williams v. Kaufman County, 352 F.3d 994, 1015 (5th Cir.2003).
¶3 AFFIRMED.
