United States Ex Rel. Triple S Alarm Co. v. Westfield Insurance

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
United States Ex Rel. Triple S Alarm Co. v. Westfield Insurance, 501 F. App'x 607 (8th Cir. 2013)

United States Ex Rel. Triple S Alarm Co. v. Westfield Insurance

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Triple S Alarm Co., Inc., appeals from the judgment of the District Court 1 denying its motion for attorney fees and a penalty under Arkansas law or attorney fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412(b), in Triple S’s suit under the Miller Act, 40 U.S.C. § 3131. After careful de novo review of the record, see United States v. Brummels, 15 F.3d 769, 771 (8th Cir. 1994), and having considered the parties’ submissions on appeal, we agree with the District Court that Triple S was not entitled to the relief that it sought for the reasons explained in the court’s opinion.

Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

1

. The Honorable Susan Webber Wright, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
