The United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit, held in case No. 96-8149, 'After carefully reviewing the record, and drawing all inferences in the light most favorable to appellant, we find no evidence of a similar discriminatory impact imposed by the Georgia flag. ... [T]here is no evidence that Georgia requires appellant to carry or display the flag or to participate in ceremonies honoring the flag. The mere fact that appellant may on some occasions be required to enter public buildings that fly the Georgia flag does not infringe upon his First Amendment rights.'

United States Court of Appeals,

Eleventh Circuit.


No. 96-8149.


James Andrew COLEMAN, Plaintiff-Appellant,


v.


Zell MILLER, Governor, State of Georgia, Defendants-Appellees,


Georgia Division, Sons of Confederate Veterans, et al., Proposed Intervenors.


July 21, 1997.


Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. (No. 1:94-cv-1673-ODE), Orinda D. Evans, Judge.


Before ANDERSON, Circuit Judge, and FAY and KRAVITCH, Senior Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:


James Coleman brought this action to enjoin the flying of the Georgia state flag over Georgia's state office buildings. Coleman, an African-American, alleges that the flying of the Georgia flag, which incorporates the Confederate battle flag emblem, violates his constitutional rights to equal protection and freedom of expression. The district court determined that Coleman had failed to produce sufficient evidence to maintain his claims and granted appellees' motion for summary judgment. Because we likewise conclude that the record contains inadequate factual support for appellant's constitutional claims, we affirm.
