Said M. Karara v. County of Tazewell, Virginia
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided July 12, 1979 · Russell, Field, Widener
601 F.2d 159; 1979 U.S. App. LEXIS 13233 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Said M. Karara v. County of Tazewell, Virginia

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Appellant instituted this diversity action alleging breach of contract by the County of Tazewell. The district court found that appellant had failed to comply with a state statute which required him to appeal the County’s denial of his claim within thirty days of receiving notice of that denial, that such failure would constitute a bar to his action in state court, and thus was a bar to his federal diversity action. We find no error in such ruling and affirm the dismissal of the appellant’s action on the opinion of the district court.

AFFIRMED.
