Appeals from the United States District Court

for the Middle District of Florida

_________________________

(August 26, 2008)

Before WILSON and PRYOR, Circuit Judges, and MIDDLEBROOKS, District *

Judge.

PER CURIAM:

Several plaintiffs, whose product-liability claims against Hoffman-LaRoche,

Inc., were consolidated, appeal the summary judgment in favor of HoffmanLaRoche that was based on a ruling by the district court that their causation

evidence was inadmissible. See In re Accutane Prods. Liab., 511 F. Supp. 2d 1288

(M.D. Fla. 2007). We have considered the briefs, the relevant parts of the record,

and the well-reasoned opinion by the district court and conclude that the district

court did not abuse its discretion by excluding the evidence and properly granted

summary judgment. 

AFFIRMED.
