Summary of this case from Thomas v. StateIn Mauldin v. Fiesta Mart, 114 F.3d 1184, 1997 WL 255640, at **1, 2 (5th Cir. May 7, 1997) (unpublished), the Fifth Circuit upheld the district court's refusal to grant the plaintiff additional discovery after the defendant had already filed its summary judgment motion, concluding that the new and dramatically broader discovery sought was a dilatory tactic "calculated to uncover something upon which to rest the otherwise unsupported allegations in his complaint."
