Appeal from the United States District Court

November 29, 1996
Before SMITH, DUHÉ, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Plaintiff LeBlanc appeals the summary judgment in his personal
injury action. The district court held that as a matter of law,
LeBlanc could not prove defendants were the proximate cause of his
injuries. Pursuant to our de novo review, we AFFIRM for
essentially the reasons stated by the district court in its
comprehensive opinion.
*
Pursuant to Local Rule 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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 Local Rule
47.5.4.
AFFIRMED
