Vickie MacMillan Individually and as Mother and Next Friend of Tanya Lee, a Minor v. United States
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Decided January 12, 1995No. 94-60276PublishedCited by 31 opinions
1Per curiam
Vickie MacMillan, acting on behalf of herself and as the next friend of her daughter, Tanya Lee, brought suit under the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1345. MacMil-lan alleged that Air Force physicians negligently caused neurological damage to Tanya Lee when she was born. The government moved for summary judgment, contending that because the limitations period had run, the district court lacked subject matter jurisdiction over the suit. The district court agreed and granted summary judgment in favor of the government. MacMillan appeals, but we affirm the district court’s decision.
