Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida

(February 24, 2016)
Before TJOFLAT, HULL and MARCUS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Case: 15-10744 Date Filed: 02/24/2016 Page: 1 of 2
-- 1 of 2 --
2
Jack LeFrock, M.D., appeals the summary judgment the District Court
granted Walgreen Co., on his state law claims for slander. Doc. 51. His principal
argument is that the court misapplied the Florida law in holding that the statements
Walgreen’s pharmacists made to his patients while filling their prescriptions were
privileged. We find no error. The statements were privileged, and LeFrock
presented no evidence to show that they were made with malice.
AFFIRMED.
