George Andrew Vaughn v. George W. Bush

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit August 11, 2005

George Andrew Vaughn v. George W. Bush, 140 F. App'x 638 (8th Cir. 2005)

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Minnesota inmate George Andrew Vaughn appeals the district court’s * dismissal of Vaughn’s civil rights action with prejudice under 28 U.S.C.1915A. Having carefully reviewed the record de novo, we agree with the district court that Vaughn’s action was barred by issue and claim preclusion. See Canady v. Allstate Ins. Co., 282 F.3d 1005, 1014-16 (8th Cir. 2002) (elements of issue and claim preclusion). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

The Honorable Donovan W. Frank, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Raymond L. Erickson, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of Minnesota.
