Opinion

OPINION OF THE COURT

PER CURIAM:

The district court dismissed plaintiff’s civil rights complaint. He appeals. *1348 Plaintiff’s grievance, alleged in the most genera] terms, seems to be that the defendants acted on perjured testimony in causing him to be extradited from Texas to Pennsylvania. We think the complaint was properly dismissed on the ground that it failed to set forth the facts with sufficient particularity to withstand a motion to dismiss. Negrich v. Hohn, 379 F.2d 213 (3d Cir. 1967).

The judgment of the district court will be affirmed.
