Rick D. Petrick, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Kenny Stradley, Sheriff, Defendant-appellee, 46 F.3d 1151 (10th Cir. 1995)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit - 46 F.3d 1151 (10th Cir. 1995) Jan. 4, 1995

Before MOORE, BARRETT, and EBEL, Circuit Judges.


ORDER AND JUDGMENT1 

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The cause is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

Rick D. Petrick filed a pro se 42 U.S.C.1983 complaint against the sheriff in whose custody he was detained while awaiting trial. The complaint asserted numerous alleged violations of Mr. Petrick's constitutional rights. The matter was referred to a magistrate judge, who ultimately concluded the sheriff was entitled to qualified immunity and recommended summary judgment be entered in favor of the defendant. Mr. Petrick filed an objection with the district judge, who ultimately concurred in and adopted the recommendation of the magistrate judge. The matter is now before us on appeal.

We have examined the briefs and record and conclude the district court did not err. We therefore AFFIRM the judgment of the district court for the reasons set forth in the recommendation of the magistrate judge.
