Donnie Dumas v. Matthew Falkner

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
Donnie Dumas v. Matthew Falkner, 705 F. App'x 483 (8th Cir. 2017)

Donnie Dumas v. Matthew Falkner

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Donnie Ray Dumas appeals after the District Court 1 granted summary judgment to defendants in his action brought under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971). Viewing the summary judgment record in the light most favorable to Dumas and drawing all reasonable inferences in his favor, we agree with the District Court that summary judgment was warranted. See Clay v. Credit Bureau Enters., Inc., 754 F.3d 535, 539 (8th Cir. 2014) (standard of review). We further conclude that the court did not err in denying Dumas’s motion to add a habeas claim against the United States Parole Commission. See Kozlov v. Associated Wholesale Grocers, Inc., 818 F.3d 380, 394-95 (8th Cir. 2016) (standard of review). We affirm the judgment.
