James E. Swiggett, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Wayne Clevenger, Douglas Price, David "buck" Townsend, Andjohn Huffine, Defendants-appellees, 47 F.3d 1170 (6th Cir. 1995)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit - 47 F.3d 1170 (6th Cir. 1995) Feb. 24, 1995

Before: KENNEDY and SILER, Circuit Judges; and CHURCHILL, District Judge* .

PER CURIAM.


Plaintiff James Swiggett appeals a summary judgment entered on behalf of defendants. Swiggett accused defendants, prison officials of Hawkins and Greene counties in Tennessee, of numerous violations of various constitutional rights. The district court found that the plaintiff failed to put forth a genuine issue of the prison officials' deliberate indifference to his constitutionally protected needs.

Upon review and consideration of the entire record, briefs of counsel and oral argument, we find that the district court made accurate and detailed findings of fact and carefully analyzed the law. As we find no error in the district court's judgment, we AFFIRM on the basis of the district court's memorandum and opinion dated October 7, 1993.

The Honorable James P. Churchill, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Michigan, sitting by designation
