1Opinion of the Court

BRORBY, Circuit Judge.

Plaintiff-Appellant, Mrs. Lorita Bryan, appeals a district court order dismissing her suit against the Office of Personnel Management to recover health benefits for jaw surgery, plus interest and attorney fees. The district court determined it lacked jurisdiction to award money damages against the Office of Personnel Management, it could not award interest in absence of a monetary judgment, and attorney fees were not warranted under state law or the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412. We exercise jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and affirm.
