122828P.pdf   08/08/2013  Fedja Rochling  v.  Dept. of VA
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-2828
   U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska - Omaha   
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Colloton and Gruender, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Administrative Procedure Act. In action claiming the VA violated the APA and plaintiff's substantive and due process rights when it reported a settlement to the National Practitioner Data Bank, the district court did not err in dismissing the procedural due process claim as plaintiff's claim that the report injured him was speculative and conclusory and failed to plead a deprivation of a constitutionally protected interest; the complaint failed to state a claim for a violation of substantive due process; the VA's fact finding procedures were adequate and the district court applied the proper review standard - arbitrary and capricious - rather than de novo review; the district court did not grossly abuse its discretion in denying plaintiff's request to supplement the administrative record; the VA's decision in the matter was not arbitrary or capricious, and the district court did not err in granting the VA's motion for summary judgment.
