   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  15-1536
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Loken and Gruender, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. In action alleging defendants violated the 
   estate's due process and equal protection rights by filing a false 
   accident report and by failing to conduct an adequate investigation of the 
   accident in which A.J. was killed, the district court did not err in 
   granting summary judgment for the defendants as the estate's allegations 
   regarding the minor discrepancies in the report did not establish that the 
   defendants prepared and filed a materially false accident report; 
   similarly, the court did not err in granting defendants summary judgment 
   on the estate's denial of access to the courts; as the accident report was 
   not materially false, the district court did not err in granting 
   defendants summary judgment on the estate's equal protection and 
   conspiracy claims; the district court did not abuse its discretion by 
   denying the estate's request for sanctions regarding missed depositions.
