Owens v. Cavell

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit March 4, 1971

Owens v. Cavell, 437 F.2d 956 (3d Cir. 1971)

Opinion of the Court

OPINION OF THE COURT

PER CURIAM:

We have examined with care the contentions made on this appeal in forma pauperis from the dismissal of petitioner’s complaint under the Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1983, for failure to set forth sufficient facts to support a claim for relief. We find the appeal to be without merit.

The judgment of the district court will be affirmed.
