U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided July 14, 1965 · Tuttle, Rives, Bell
348 F.2d 913; 1965 U.S. App. LEXIS 4899 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Willie Bristol Watson v. United States

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

It is ordered that the petition for rehearing filed in the above styled and numbered cause be, and the same is, hereby denied. The petitioner’s insistence, that since the alleged malpractice was on a federal enclave, the Georgia law does not apply, is answered by the statute, 16 U.S.C.A. § 457. See Buchanan v. United States, 8 Cir. 1962, 305 F.2d 738; Ashley v. United States, D.C.Neb. 1963, 215 F.Supp. 39, 43.
