UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT
No. 95-1380
JAMES McLAUGHLIN,
Plaintiff, Appellant,
v.
UNITED STATES SECRETARY OF THE NAVY, ET AL.,
Defendants, Appellees.
APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF MAINE
[Hon. Gene Carter, U.S. District Judge]
Before
Selya, Cyr and Boudin,
Circuit Judges.
James McLaughlin on brief pro se.
Jay P. McCloskey, United States Attorney, Frank W. Hunger,
Assistant Attorney General, Marleigh D. Dover and Jennifer Hay Zacks,
Attorneys, Appellate Staff, Civil Division, Department of Justice, on
brief for appellees.
Per Curiam. We have carefully reviewed the record
and the briefs of the parties and summarily affirm the
judgment of the district court for essentially the reasons
stated in the recommended decision of the magistrate judge.
The district court adopted the reasoning of this decision
when it dismissed appellant's complaint, and we, too, think
that reasoning is persuasive. Appellant's motion for summary
disposition is therefore denied.
Affirmed. See 1st Cir. R. 27.1.
