Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Decided November 17, 1978No. 77-1734PublishedCited by 19 opinions

1Per curiam

The court, having read the briefs, addressed itself to the record, and heard oral arguments, finds no abuse of discretion and no violation of constitutional rights in the lower court’s order dismissing the appellants’ case under Rule 37(b) for noncompliance with pre-trial discovery orders. Similarly, we find no abuse of discretion in the lower court’s denial of leave to file a third amended complaint.

Accordingly, for the reasons set forth in the district court’s memorandum opinion, that opinion is affirmed and adopted as the opinion of this court. Costs are awarded to the appellees.

AFFIRMED.
