United States First Circuit

On second appeal from the district court, over whether the defendant's offer of judgment under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 was properly accepted by the plaintiff such that the district court did not err in entering judgment for the plaintiff, the judgment is affirmed where, because plaintiff filed a timely acceptance, the district court's entry of judgment was correct regardless of what took place in the contested series of exchanges between the parties in the time between the offer of judgment and plaintiff's acceptance.
