Probation Officer, and United Statesdepartment of Probation Officer, Andunited States Department Ofprobation,defendant-appellees, 101 F.3d 686 (2d Cir. 1996)

This cause came on to be heard on the transcript of record from the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and was argued by appellant pro se and by counsel for the appellees.

ON CONSIDERATION WHEREOF, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that the judgment of the District Court is hereby AFFIRMED.

Bart Schwartz appeals pro se from the judgment entered December 4, 1995, dismissing on motion for summary judgment his claims against the United States Department of Justice, the Probation Department (of the Southern District of New York), and a Probation Officer. He contends that his constitutional and statutory rights were violated in connection with the preparation of the presentence report after his conviction for perjury.

All of his claims were fully considered and properly rejected in the comprehensive opinion of the District Court. Since the Probation Office, as an arm of the District Court, see United States v. Inserra, 34 F.3d 83, 88 (2d Cir. 1994), is not covered by the Privacy Act, see 5 U.S.C. § 551(1) (B); Standley v. Department of Justice, 835 F.2d 216, 218 (9th Cir. 1987), we need not consider the merits of appellant's claim under the Act.
