Opinion
The Snyder family appeals the district court’s dismissal for want of subject matter jurisdiction of their lawsuit against the United States. Premising jurisdiction on the Federal Tort Claims Act, the Snyders brought various tort claims against the United States based upon its alleged misconduct in disposing of waste at a Marine Corps base in the early 1970s. 28 U.S.C. § 1346(b) (2006) We have carefully reviewed the parties’ briefs and the pertinent portions of the record. The district judge entered a thorough and thoughtful opinion styled as an Order and Reasons Dismissing Case for Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction. Essentially for the reasons stated by the district court, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir R. 47.5.4.
