Mahmud v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security
Opinion
Plaintiff-appellant Bilal Mahmud appeals the dismissal of his action. The judgment of the district court was accompanied by a full published opinion, Mahmud v. Ober *936 man, 508 F.Supp.2d 1294 (2007). In his complaint, Mahmud asserted claims which he sought to establish under the Bivens v. Six Unknomi Named Agents of Federal Bureau of Narcotics doctrine, 403 U.S. 388, 397, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971), based upon the suspension or revocation of the Hazardous Materials Endorsement on his commercial drivers license. Based on the facts of this case, the district court held that a Bivens remedy for damages was not available to Mahmud, and, furthermore, Mahmud had not met his burden of establishing that due process is satisfied by the exercise of personal jurisdiction over defendant-appellee Justin P. Oberman. It granted Oberman’s motion to dismiss for both reasons.
Having carefully considered the judgment and opinion of the district court, the briefs of the parties, and the record, and finding no reversible error, the judgment is AFFIRMED.
