J. Richard Balsbaugh v. City of Westland, a Michigan Municipal Corporation
Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
Decided May 10, 1972No. 71-1878PublishedCited by 7 opinions
1Per curiam
This is an appeal from a summary judgment entered in favor of the City of Westland only, in an action for damages under the Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1983. See Johnson v. City of Cincinnati, 450 F.2d 796, 798 (6th Cir. 1971).
It appears that the District Court did not make the determination and direction required for a final judgment under Rule 54(b), Fed.R.Civ.P.

Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.…
