Shelly B. JOHNSON and Mark Johnson, Plaintiffs-Appellants,
v.
Gordon E. DRAKE, Defendant, and
Corporation of the Presiding Bishop of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a Utah Corporation,
Defendant-Appellee.

No. 90-4072.

United States Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit.

May 8, 1991.

Before TACHA and SETH, Circuit Judges, and BRATTON, District Judge.*

ORDER AND JUDGMENT**

TACHA, Circuit Judge.

Plaintiffs-appellants contest the district court's grant of summary judgment to defendant-appellee Corporation of the Presiding Bishop of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Church). The district court held the Church was not liable to plaintiffs-appellants because defendant Drake was not within the scope of his employment with the Church when he caused the injuries of which plaintiffs-appellants complain. We AFFIRM for substantially the reasons given by the district court.

* Honorable Howard C. Bratton, Senior Judge, United States District Court for the District of New Mexico, sitting by designation
