James Edward Smith, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Sheriff Mapp; Dr. Boyd, Defendant-appellee, 829 F.2d 36 (4th Cir. 1987)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 829 F.2d 36 (4th Cir. 1987) Submitted May 28, 1987. Decided September 2, 1987

James Edward Smith, appellant pro se.

Rosemary Escue Phillips, Francis Paul Hajek, Seawell, Dalton, Hughes & Timms, for appellee Mapp.

William C. Walker, Taylor, Walker & Adams, for appellee Boyd.

Before K.K. HALL, MURNAGHAN and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal from its order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 is without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument and affirm the judgment below on the reasoning of the district court. Smith v. Mapp, C/A No. 85-775-N (E.D. Va., Nov. 19, 1986).

AFFIRMED.
