Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
A relative of David Jordan, a worker killed when he fell off a barge and drowned, sued the owner of the facility, Consolidated Grain & Barge, Inc. The district court granted summary judgment for the defendant.
We have reviewed the briefs, pertinent portions of the record, and the applicable law and have heard the arguments of counsel. We agree with the conclusion that the defendant owed no duty to Jordan under the circumstances. The summary judgment is AFFIRMED, essentially for the reasons given by the district court.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
