Plaintiff-Appellant, Charles L. Stringer (“Stringer”), appeals the district court’s final judgment of dismissal, arguing that (1) the magistrate and district court judges should have been disqualified; (2) the Defendants-Appellees violated the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”), 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq.; (3) the district court erred in dismissing the complaint as frivolous; and (4) the magistrate judge failed to conduct an omnibus hearing. For the following reasons, we AFFIRM the district court’s judgment.
I. Factual and Procedural Background
Stringer brought this suit against several defendants under the ADA and 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983 and 1985. The crux of the complaint relates to Stringer’s attempt to obtain more food stamps and grants for utility bills. Stringer alleged that certain defendants conspired to violate his civil rights and other defendants failed to write policies and procedures to prevent the conspiracy among defendants. Stringer requested, inter alia, that the district court *619“[i]ssue a Preliminary Injunction or a Temporary Restraining Order directing the defendants to pay the gas bill as they are already supposed to do!”
Stringer moved to recuse the magistrate and district court judges. Stringer stated several reasons for the recusal, including that neither judge “would be fair to any white person.” The magistrate judge entered an order denying the motion seeking her recusal. The district court judge did not enter an order expressly addressing the motion seeking his recusal.
Stringer sought leave to proceed in for-ma pauperis. The magistrate judge granted the motion to proceed in forma pauperis and recommended that the complaint be dismissed as frivolous. The district court adopted the Report and Recommendation (“R & R”) and entered a final judgment dismissing the action as frivolous. Stringer filed a motion for reconsideration of the judgment, and the district court denied the motion for reconsideration. Stringer now appeals the judgment and orders denying the motions for recusal.1
II. Discussion
A. Motions to Recuse
Stringer filed motions to recuse both the district court judge and the magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 144 and 455. Both judges denied the motions to recuse, although the district court judge’s denial was implicit in the final judgment dismissing the action. See Norman v. Apache Corp., 19 F.3d 1017, 1021 (5th Cir.1994); see also Webber v. Fed. Bureau of Prisons, 200 Fed.Appx. 335, 337 (5th Cir.2006) (unpublished) (“The denial of the recusal motion was implicit in the entry of final judgment dismissing the complaint.”) (citation omitted). We review denials of motions to recuse for abuse of disci’etion. Andrade v. Chojnacki, 338 F.3d 448, 454 (5th Cir.2003).
Under § 455, a federal judge “shall disqualify himself in any proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned.” 28 U.S.C. § 455(a). A judge must also disqualify himself under various circumstances enumerated in § 455(b). See id. § 455(b). Under § 144, a judge must reassign a case when a party “makes and files a timely and sufficient affidavit that the judge before whom the matter is pending has a personal bias or prejudice either against him or in favor of any adverse party.” Id. § 144; see Davis v. Bd. of Sch. Comm’rs, 517 F.2d 1044, 1051 (5th Cir.1975) (“[T]he judge must pass on the legal sufficiency of the affidavit, but may not pass on the truth of the matters alleged.”) (citations omitted).
The facts stated in Stringer’s affidavits are not legally sufficient to support a l’ecusal motion under either recusal statute. Therefore, the district court did not abuse its discretion by denying the motions to recuse.
B. Dismissal
We review a district court’s dismissal as frivolous for abuse of discretion. Norton v. Dimazana, 122 F.3d 286, 291 (5th Cir.1997). We find that Stringer’s claims are legally frivolous, and the district court did not abuse its discretion. Stringei’’s remaining assignments of eiTor are without merit. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed. See 5th Cir. R. 42.2.
III. Conclusion
We AFFIRM the district court’s final judgment, including the denial of String*620er’s motions for recusal. Stringer also filed a motion for appointment of counsel, which is DENIED. This appeal is DISMISSED.
