and No: 12-2220
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Murphy and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Torts. The contract in question did not establish that the
common law duty of care defendant Anderson owed plaintiff extended to
preventing unforeseen injuries caused by plaintiff's employer's failure to
follow applicable safety rules; further, defendant Anderson was not in
charge of the movement of the equipment which injured plaintiff and had no
reason to foresee that his comment to raise the equipment would cause the
employer's workers to raise the equipment without ensuring that it was
safe to do so; district court did not abuse its discretion by striking an
untimely export report; district court did not abuse its discretion by
denying plaintiff's motion to amend his complaint.
