U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided June 25, 1959 · Sobeloff, Haynsworth, Thomsen
268 F.2d 426; 1959 U.S. App. LEXIS 3574 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Loren E. Thompson, D/B/A Parkersburg Die and Tool Company v. United States

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

No question of law is presented by this appeal. Though the controlling law is federal, rather than state as assumed below, 1 there is no apparent difference in the governing rules. The sole question is whether the facts require an inference that the United States waived ■ the defaults of its contractor with respect to the contract involved in count 1 of the complaint. That may have been a permissible inference, but the facts as found and recited in the opinion of the *427 District Court 2 do not require it. The factual question was settled by the findings of the District Court which we must accept.

Affirmed.
