Kathleen Taggart v. United States

ENGEL, Chief Judge.

In this action brought under the Federal Tort Claims Act, Plaintiff-Appellant Kathleen Taggart appeals a summary judgment of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, holding Defendant-Appellee United States of America immune from liability, given a settlement agreement executed between Taggart and a third party, the All Saints Episcopal Church. We find that the settlement agreement precludes Taggart’s action against the United States and accordingly affirm the district court’s summary judgment.
