Karen A. COOPER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. U.S. POSTAL SERVICE, Defendant-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided July 12, 1984.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mark F. Carolin, San Diego, Cal., for plaintiff-appellant.

Robert H. Plaxico, Asst. U.S. Atty., San Diego, Cal., for defendant-appellee.

Before WALLACE, SCHROEDER, and NELSON, Circuit Judges.


WALLACE, Circuit Judge:

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and affirm.
