Before EMILIO M. GARZA, DeMOSS, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Jeffrey Creamer, Bradford Nelson, and Samuel Zamora appeal

the district court’s denial of their motion for a summary

judgment dismissing Thomas Lorenzo’s claims that they used

excessive force against him and that they failed to provide him

with adequate medical care after the second alleged incident of

     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.

                                 -2-

excessive use of force.   Creamer, Nelson, and Zamora argue that

Thomas did not present sufficient summary judgment evidence to

establish that a genuine issue of material fact exists which

precludes the court from granting summary judgment.   We have

interlocutory jurisdiction to determine whether Thomas’ summary

judgment facts state a claim under clearly established federal

law.    See Behrens v. Pelletier, 116 S. Ct. 834, 842 (1996);

Nerren v. Livingston Police Dep’t, 86 F.3d 469, 472 (5th Cir.

1996).    Viewing the facts in the light most favorable to Thomas,

we conclude that the district court did not err in holding that

Thomas’ allegations state a claim for excessive use of force

against Creamer and state a separate claim for excessive use of

force against Nelson and Zamora.    See Rankin v. Klevenhagen, 5

F.3d 103, 107 (5th Cir. 1993).   Thomas’ allegations also state a

claim against Nelson and Zamora for failure to provide adequate

medical care after the second alleged incident of excessive use

of force.    See Reeves v. Collins, 27 F.3d 174, 176 (5th Cir.

1994).

       AFFIRMED.
