Said M. Karara v. County of Tazewell, Virginia

601 F.2d 159, 1979 U.S. App. LEXIS 13233

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Appellant instituted this diversity action alleging breach of contract by the County of Tazewell. The district court found that appellant had failed to comply with a state statute which required him to appeal the County’s denial of his claim within thirty days of receiving notice of that denial, that such failure would constitute a bar to his action in state court, and thus was a bar to his federal diversity action. We find no error in such ruling and affirm the dismissal of the appellant’s action on the opinion of the district court.

AFFIRMED.
