   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Wollman and Shepherd, Circuit

   Civil case - Declaratory Judgment. District court did not err in finding
   that Washington University was the owner of the biological samples and
   that neither defendant Catalona nor the donors had any ownership interest
   in the samples; district court did not err in concluding that the
   donors made informed and voluntary decisions to participate in genetic
   cancer research and that they donated their biological materials to the
   school as valid inter vivos gifts.
