MEHAFFY, Circuit Judge.
Plaintiff, Gregory C. Mosher, brought this civil rights action under 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983, seeking actual and punitive damages against defendant, John T. Beirne, who was Mayor of the incorporated City of Creve Coeur, Missouri. 1
Jurisdiction was invoked under 28 U.S. C.A. § 1343. The District Court in an opinion published at 237 F.Supp. 684 sustained defendant’s motion for summary judgment based on the pleadings, affidavits, depositions and exhibits before it. We affirm.
The facts are fully stated in Judge Harper’s opinion but we summarize those pertinent for this opinion.
