Richardson v. A.A. Podiatry, P.L.L.C.

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Lenir Richardson appeals a district court order dismissing without prejudice her complaint. Insofar as Richardson raised a claim against two hospitals under 42 U.S.C. § 1395dd(a) (2000), we find Richardson failed to state a claim because she failed to allege the harm suffered as a result of the alleged violations of § 1395dd(a). With respect to the remainder of her claims, which were torts controlled by state law, the district court did not have jurisdiction. Accordingly, we affirm. 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
