Summary Calendar
JUNIOR EARL ROBERTSON,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
BERNEY KESZLER, Dr.
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No.SA-98-CV-295-JWP
--------------------
April 10, 2000
Before DAVIS, EMILIO M. GARZA and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Dr. Berney Keszler appeals the denial of his motion for
summary judgment in which he asserted qualified immunity from the
claims of a Texas inmate, Junior Robertson, for the denial of
adequate medical care and for retaliation. This court has
jurisdiction to review whether the issues of fact identified by
the district court are material. Colston v. Barnhart,
146 F.3d
282, 284 (5th Cir.), denying petition for rehearing en banc,
cert. denied,
119 S. Ct. 618 (1998).
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
No. 99-50671
-2-
The district court determined that genuine issues of
material fact existed whether Dr. Keszler denied Robertson
medical care between April 22 and May 5, 1997, and whether Dr.
Keszler retaliated against Robertson because Robertson complained
about Dr. Keszler. Our review of the record confirms that
material issues of fact do exist. See Farmer v. Brennan,
511
U.S. 825, 839-41 (1994); Estelle v. Gamble,
429 U.S. 97, 104
(1976); McDonald v. Steward,
132 F.3d 225, 231 (5th Cir. 1998).
Accordingly, the district court’s denial of Dr. Keszler’s motion
for summary judgment is AFFIRMED.
