United States Eighth Circuit

In a 42 U.S.C. section 1983 action claiming that defendants acted with deliberate indifference to plaintiff's serious medical needs while she was incarcerated at a correctional center, summary judgment for defendants and other rulings against plaintiff are affirmed over claims that the district court erred in: 1) denying her motion to amend the complaint; 2) granting defendants' motion to strike a doctor's expert affidavit; and 3) granting summary judgment on the Eighth Amendment claim.
