  • United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT _____________ No. 96-3324SI _____________ Marcia Sharon Neal, * * Appellant, * Appeal from the United States * District Court for the Southern v. * District of Iowa. * Walgreen Drug Stores, also known as * [UNPUBLISHED] Walgreen Company, * * Appellee. * _____________ Submitted: May 21, 1997 Filed: May 30, 1997 _____________ Before McMILLIAN, FAGG, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges. _____________ PER CURIAM. Marcia Sharon Neal appeals the district court's adverse grant of summary judgment in Neal's action to recover for injuries sustained in a purse-snatching incident in front of a Walgreen's store. We review a grant of summary judgment under a well- established standard. Because this is a diversity action, we review de novo questions of state law. Having considered the record and the parties' briefs, we are satisfied the district court correctly applied the controlling law and the record supports the district court's ruling. Because a comprehensive opinion in this diversity case would lack precedential value, we affirm on the basis of the magistrate judge's ruling without further discussion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. A true copy. Attest: CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT. -2-
