No. 21533.

340 F.2d 512 (1965)

James Phillip ERICKSON, d/b/a Wit's End, Appellant, v. UNITED STATES of America, Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit.

January 22, 1965.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Harry P. Hall, Jr., John L. Westmoreland, Jr., Atlanta, Ga., for appellant.

Thomas L. Stapleton, Louis F. Oberdorfer, Asst. Atty. Gen., Lee A. Jackson, Atty., Dept. of Justice, Washington, D. C., Charles L. Goodson, U. S. Atty., Slaton Clemmons, Asst. U. S. Atty., Atlanta, Ga., Meyer Rothwacks, Dept. of Justice, Washington, D. C., for respondent.

Before WISDOM and GEWIN, Circuit Judges, and BREWSTER, District Judge.


PER CURIAM.

The appellant complains of the action of the trial court in granting motion for summary judgment holding the appellant liable for cabaret taxes under §§ 4231(6) and 4232(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. It seems appropriate to state that a party opposing summary judgment may not rest upon the mere allegations or denials in his pleadings to avoid the granting of such a judgment otherwise justified. F.R.Civ. P. 56.1
