No. 09-30301

(Louisiana) deputy sheriffs who used crowd-dispersant gas canisters after their

oral orders proved ineffectual. Plaintiffs-Appellants contend that the district

court improvidently granted the summary judgment motions of DefendantsAppellees grounded in qualified immunity and dismissed this action.

We have reviewed the record on appeal and the applicable law as revealed

by the briefs of the parties and our independent research, as a result of which

we are convinced that the rulings of the district court, based in large measure

on the March 10, 2009 Report and Recommendation of the magistrate judge,

correctly disposed of this action. Satisfied that the patient and exhaustive

analysis of the case confected by the magistrate judge in his Report and

Recommendation reached the correct result for the correct reasons, and thus

supports the orders and judgment of the district court, we affirm all rulings from

which Plaintiffs-Appellants have appealed, including the above-said judgments

of dismissal.

AFFIRMED.
