v.
COMMISSIONER, NH DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, ET AL.,
Defendants, Appellees.
APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
[Hon. Joseph A. DiClerico, U.S. District Judge]
Before
Selya, Cyr and Boudin,
Circuit Judges.
Scott Brooker on brief pro se.
Jeffrey R. Howard, Attorney General, and Stephen J. Judge, Senior
Assistant Attorney General, on brief for appellees.
November 26, 1996
Per Curiam. Appellant Scott Philip Brooker sued
defendants under 42 U.S.C. 1983, alleging that they were
deliberately indifferent to his serious medical needs in
violation of the Eighth Amendment. He now appeals from the
district court's grant of summary judgment in defendants'
favor. After careful review of the record, we affirm
substantially for the reasons given by the district court in
its decision dated April 1, 1996.
Affirmed.
