United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT ________________ No. 06-3139 ________________ Richard Anthony Kaminsky, also known as Richard Anthony Kaminsky, D.O., also known as Dr. Richard Anthony Kaminsky, Appellant, v. Saint Louis University School of Medicine, Appellee. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. [UNPUBLISHED] ________________ Submitted: May 14, 2007 Filed: June 26, 2007 ________________ Before MURPHY, HANSEN, and COLLOTON, Circuit Judges. ________________ PER CURIAM. Dr. Richard Kaminsky appeals the district court's1 adverse grant of summary judgment in his Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12112(a), and Title VII 1 The Honorable Catherine D. Perry, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri. of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e - 2000e-17, suit against Saint Louis University School of Medicine (SLU). Upon careful de novo review, see Ferguson v. United States, 484 F.3d 1068, 1072 (8th Cir. 2007), we find no reversible error of fact or law. Even if Dr. Kaminsky had been able to establish a prima facie case of discrimination, SLU proffered sufficient nondiscriminatory reasons for its actions that Dr. Kaminsky failed to rebut as pretextual. See Freeman v. Fahey, 374 F.3d 663, 666 (8th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, we affirm based upon the district court's well-reasoned and thorough order. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________ -2-
