Opinion

No. 16860.

October 9, 1962.

Fred J. Patz, Lincoln, Neb., made argument for the appellant and Sterling F. Mutz, Lincoln, Neb., was on the brief.

F.B. Baylor, Lincoln, Neb., made argument for the appellee and Baylor, Evnen, Baylor Urbom by F.B. Baylor, Lincoln, Neb., was on the brief.

Before SANBORN and BLACKMUN, Circuit Judges, and REGISTER, District Judge.


We affirm the judgment for the defendant (appellee) in this diversity case governed by Nebraska law and tried to Judge John W. Delehant without a jury. He has written an exhaustive opinion, reported in D.C., 204 F. Supp. 207, to which we can add nothing. That opinion and the briefs of the parties have convinced us that the judgment appealed from represents, at the very least, a permissible conclusion with respect to a doubtful question of Nebraska law, which this Court will not reverse. Homolla v. Gluck, 8 Cir., 248 F.2d 731, 733; Weiby v. Farmers Mutual Automobile Insurance Co., 8 Cir., 273 F.2d 327, 331; Village of Brooten v. Cudahy Packing Company, 8 Cir., 291 F.2d 284, 301.

Affirmed.
