Annotate this CaseAppeals from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, District Judge. (CA-95-744)
Roosevelt Taylor, Jr., Dennis Michael Titus, Clarence E. Jones, Terrance M. Seay, John David Simpson, Gregory Walker, Robert Lee Conner, Thomas Allen Elkins, Ronald L. Porter, Charles Clarke, Jimmie Conner, Charles C. Atkins, Paul Lee Martin, Appellants Pro Se. Mark Ralph Davis, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellees.
E.D. Va.
AFFIRMED.
Before HALL, WILKINS, and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Appellants filed a complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988), claiming that their Eighth Amendment rights were violated because they were exposed to histoplasmosis. The district court conducted a hearing and granted summary judgment in Appellees' favor for the reasons stated from the bench. Appellants appeal from the court's order. We have reviewed the record and the district court's statements from the bench. The court properly found that Appellants failed to show that Appellees were deliberately indifferent to a risk of infection. See Farmer v. Brennan, --- U.S. ----, 62 U.S.L.W. 4446, 4448-50 (U.S. June 6, 1994) (No. 92-7247). Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Taylor v. Guillory, No. CA-95-744 (E.D. Va. Mar. 1, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED.
