   Civil case - Contracts. Res judicata may be raised in a motion to
   dismiss; district court did not err in finding a particular count of the
   complaint was barred by the doctrine of res judicata as the cause of action
   existed at the time of the first judgment and the count arose out of the
   only transaction or occurrence Lobrano presented to the Louisiana court
   which rendered judgment in his favor; district court's decision not to
   award sanctions against Robinson is affirmed.
