Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 3:97-CV-2475
--------------------
February 17, 2000
Before EMILIO M. GARZA, BENAVIDES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Justin Ball appeals the district court's denial of his
motion for summary judgment in Thomas’s civil rights suit. Ball
argues that the district court erred by denying his summary-
judgment motion and that this court has jurisdiction over the
interlocutory appeal. Because there is a significant fact-
related dispute with regard to Thomas’s brutality claim, this
court does not have jurisdiction to review the district court’s
denial of the motion for summary judgment on this claim. See
