Before ERVIN, Chief Judge, MICHAEL, Circuit Judge, and MESSITTE, United States District Judge for the District of Maryland, sitting by designation.
PER CURIAM:

1
Appellants were injured as a result of a motor vehicle accident.  They brought this declaratory judgment action to determine whether an insurance policy issued by appellees provides coverage for their injuries.  The district court granted appellees' motion for summary judgment.  Having reviewed the briefs and the record, including the special hauling permits introduced by appellants for the first time on appeal, and having listened to oral argument, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.  See DiProsperis v. Reliance National and Planet Insur.  Co., No. 91-0205-W(S) (N.D. W.Va. May 20, 1994).  At best, appellants have presented no more than "a scintilla of evidence" in support of their allegation that a Form MCS-90 was issued to Ruan Leasing Company, and therefore summary judgment is appropriate.  See Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 252 (1986).
