July 21, 1998
Before JONES, SMITH and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Carlos Demour Dale, Texas prisoner # 769023, appeals from
the magistrate judge’s order granting summary judgment in favor
of Officer Bridges and dismissing Dale’s claim under 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983. Dale contends that, in granting the motion, the
magistrate judge overlooked the existence of genuine issues of
fact which are material to his claims of excessive force and
denial of adequate medical care.
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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. 98-10137
-2-
A thorough review of the record reveals that Dale has failed
to establish a valid claim for either excessive force or denial
of adequate medical care. See Little v. Liquid Air Corp., 37
F.3d 1069, 1075 (5th Cir. 1994)(en banc); Siglar v. Hightower,
112 F.3d 191, 193-94 (5th Cir. 1997).
AFFIRMED.
