Parker v. State of Mississippi

Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 00-60195 Conference Calendar

CLYDE W. PARKER,

Plaintiff-Appellant,

versus

STATE OF MISSISSIPPI ET AL.,

Defendants,

JOE PRICE, Sheriff; BRUCE CARVER; EDMUND CRANE, DR.,

Defendants-Appellees.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi USDC No. 1:96-CV-371-GR -------------------- February 13, 2001

Before SMITH, BARKSDALE, and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Clyde W. Parker appeals from the summary judgment for the

defendants in his civil rights action. Parker contends that the

defendants were deliberately indifferent to his serious medical

needs when he was incarcerated in the Harrison County,

Mississippi, Detention Center, first as a pretrial detainee, then

as a convicted offender.

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. No. 00-60195 -2-

The record shows that there is no genuine issue as to any

material fact and that the defendants were entitled to judgment

as a matter of law. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett,

477 U.S. 317, 322

(1986). Parker’s allegations and the summary-judgment evidence

show only a disagreement with the treatment he received. He has

failed to show deliberate indifference. Norton v. Dimazana,

122 F.3d 286, 292

(5th Cir. 1997); Varnado v. Lynaugh,

920 F.2d 320, 321

(5th Cir. 1991).

AFFIRMED.
