Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 105 F.3d 662 (8th Cir. 1997) Submitted Jan. 3, 1997. Filed Jan. 8, 1997

Before FAGG, WOLLMAN, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


Bill Herron, a Missouri prison inmate, appeals the district court's order denying Herron's motions for appointment of counsel and for sanctions against opposing counsel, denying injunctive relief, and granting summary judgment in Cornell's favor on Herron's claim that Cornell was deliberately indifferent to Herron's serious medical needs because Herron failed to show that Cornell, an administrative employee, was authorized to make an outside neurological referral for Herron. Having carefully reviewed the record and the briefs, we conclude the rulings of the district court are clearly correct. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

Herron's motion for appointment of counsel is denied.
