Carol E. Speer v. United States
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided May 6, 1982 · Brown, Duplantier, Per Curiam, Randall
675 F.2d 100; 1982 U.S. App. LEXIS 19474 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Carol E. Speer v. United States

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

On this appeal, plaintiff-appellant Carol E. Speer challenges only the findings of the district court that Jerry Speer’s suicide constituted an independent intervening cause of his death and that the Veterans Administration Hospital Pharmacy’s negligence was, therefore, not the proximate cause of such death.

We affirm those findings on the basis of the district court’s Memorandum Opinion, 512 F.Supp. 670 (N.D.Tex. 1981).

AFFIRMED.
