1
Ian Bruce Johnson brought this action against the Kansas Supreme Court alleging that the court violated the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. § 12131 et seq., when it denied his application to take the Kansas Bar examination.   The district court granted summary judgment for defendant, holding that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction over the action.  Johnson v. State of Kansas, 888 F.Supp. 1073 (D.Kan.1995).   Mr. Johnson appeals.

We have reviewed the record, the parties' briefs, and the law.   The district court thoroughly discussed the relevant issues, and we are substantially in accord with its analysis and its conclusion that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction over this case under District of Columbia Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983).   We therefore AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
