Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (February 19, 2008) Before TJOFLAT, MARCUS and WILSON, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: This is an appeal from an order granting the defendants summary judgment. The plaintiff contends that the district court erred: 1) in holding that res judicata barred its claim for punitive damages; and 2) in holding that collateral estoppel barred its claim for compensatory or punitive damages. After hearing oral argument, we conclude that the court committed no error in granting the defendants summary judgment. AFFIRMED. 2
