Capitol Indemnity Corp. v. Price Municipal Corp.

ORDER AND JUDGMENT *

LUCERO, Circuit Judge.

We granted oral argument in this case in order to thoroughly consider the claims of error raised by the Appellant. Having now heard oral argument, having carefully considered the parties’ briefs and authorities, and having reviewed the record, we find ourselves in complete accord with the well-reasoned and scholarly opinion of the district court.

We will neither recite the facts which have been summarized by the district court, nor will we restate the claims of error as the parties are thoroughly familiar with them. Reviewing all arguments raised before us, including Appellant’s claim that one of the grounds relied upon by the district court—based on suretyship law—was not specifically pled in the complaint, we find no error which merits correction. For substantially the reasons stated by the district court we AFFIRM the judgment.
