Text: “This Court ‘reviews de novo the district court’s grant of summary judgment, applying the same standard as the district court.’” Feist v. La., Dep’t 4 Case: 16-30879 Document: 00514075347 Page: 5 Date Filed: 07/17/2017 No. 16-30879 of Justice, Office of the Att’y Gen., 730 F.3d 450, 452 (5th Cir. 2013) (quoting Fabela v. Socorro Indep. Sch. Dist., 329 F.3d 409, 414 (5th Cir. 2003)). Summary judgment is appropriate “if the movant shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a). A genuine dispute of material fact exists if the “evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party.” Royal v. CCC & R Tres Arboles, L.L.C., 736 F.3d 396, 400 (5th Cir. 2013) (quoting Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248 (1986)).

No. 5, 717 F.3d 431, 433 (5th Cir. 2013)).
