Askanazi v. Bledsoe

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit January 28, 2002

Askanazi v. Bledsoe, 25 F. App'x 204 (4th Cir. 2002)

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Jeffrey Askanazi, M.D., appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his Bivens complaint. * We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Askanazi v. Bledsoe, No. CA-00-148-1 (N.D.W.Va. Aug. 7, 2001). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.

Because Appellant is a federal prisoner, we construe this action as brought pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971).
