Before FAGG, WOLLMAN, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

       The Daniel T. Haines appellants appeal from the district court's
adverse grant of summary judgment in their product liability action.            We
review a grant of summary judgment under a well-established standard.
Because this is a diversity action, we review de novo questions of state
law.    Having considered the record and the parties' briefs, we are
satisfied the district court correctly applied Iowa law and the record
supports   the   district    court's   ruling.    We   also   conclude   that   a
comprehensive opinion in this diversity case would lack precedential value.
We thus affirm
the decision of the district court without further discussion.   See 8th
Cir. R. 47B.

                CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
