Appeal from the United States District Court
For the Middle District of Louisiana
(98-CV-906)
December 13, 2000
Before DAVIS, JONES, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Paula J. Griswold (“Griswold”) filed suit under the Americans
with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1210, et seq., in the United
States District Court for the Middle District of Louisiana against
her employer, Louisiana Worker’s Compensation Corporation, and
various individual defendants who were supervisors. The defendants

opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under
the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
answered and moved for summary judgment. The parties consented in
writing to the referral of this controversy to the magistrate judge
for final disposition. In a 19-page ruling filed under date of
March 6, 2000, the magistrate judge gave thorough and comprehensive
consideration to all of the individual aspects upon which Griswold
claims she was disabled; and ultimately concluded that Griswold had
failed to establish that she suffered from a “disability” within
the meaning of the Act. Accordingly, the magistrate judge entered
a Final Judgment granting defendants’ motion for summary judgment;
and Griswold timely appealed.
We have carefully reviewed the briefs, the record excerpts,
and relevant portions of the record itself. For the reasons stated
by the magistrate judge in the ruling referred to above, we are
satisfied that plaintiff’s claim of disability has been given the
individualized consideration contemplated by the Supreme Court in
Sutton v. United Airlines, Inc., 119 S. Ct. 2139. Accordingly, we
affirm the Final Judgment entered herein.
AFFIRMED.
