RITTS DISTRIBUTING COMPANY, INC.; TIMOTHY HOLMES, By and Through His Next Friend and Mother, Virginia Holmes Defendants and JOANNE HUFF-RITTS; SPENCER RITTS Plaintiff - Appellants __________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi, Oxford (3:94-CV-93) __________________________ January 12, 1996 Before WIENER, PARKER and DENNIS, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Appellants appeal the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of Transportation Insurance denying Uninsured Motorist coverage to Mrs. Ritts. Appellants also appeal the district court decision to reform the insurance contract and its decision not to certify the question of coverage to the Mississippi Supreme Court. The appellants argue that Mrs. Ritts is insured * Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4. under the corporate policy either personally as the wife of the sole stockholder or as an officer of a closely held corporation, or that Mrs. Ritts is insured as a permissive user or guest in an automobile insured under the policy. We have reviewed the record and the decisions of the district court. We agree with the analysis of Mississippi law and the conclusions set forth in the district court's written opinion. Accordingly, judgment of the district court is affirmed and the motion for certification of questions of law to the Mississippi Supreme Court is denied.
