   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-4558
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Ft. Smith   
   [PUBLISHED] [Arnold, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Kelly, Circuit 
   Judge] 
   Civil case - Torts. Appeal of a denial of a Rule 59(e) motion allows 
   challenge of the underlying ruling that produced the judgment even if the 
   notice of appeal did not refer to the underlying order granting summary 
   judgment; the district court did not err in granting defendant IP summary 
   judgment as plaintiff made no evidentiary showing that defendants breached 
   a duty of care or committed a negligent act.
