United States Ninth Circuit


ZAPUTIL v. COWGILL, 02-56063

The intra-military immunity doctrine from Feres v. US, 340 U.S. 135, bars a military reservist, who had been discharged from the National Guard but not from the Reserve, from bringing an action for damages against the military personnel who allegedly wrongly revoked her National Guard discharge and ordered her back to duty.
