Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Decided August 4, 1969No. 22611PublishedCited by 22 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
HAMLIN, Circuit Judge.
The United States instituted this suit in the district court pursuant to the Medical Care Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. § 2651. In the suit the United States sought to recover for the value of medical care furnished by it to the infant daughter of an enlisted man in the Navy. The district court, holding that the United States should have sought recovery by intervening in a prior suit brought on behalf of the daughter against the Housing Authority, dismissed the action. It is from this dismissal that the United States appeals, under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We reverse.
