                                                     Plaintiff-Appellant,

                                        versus

                           the Western District of Texas

claim of intentional infliction of emotional distress. Because Evans’ negligence

claim arises out of her husband’s assault and battery, it is barred by 28 U.S.C. §

2680(h). Dixon and Lynch undertook nothing more than to perform their military

responsibility. Evans did not present sufficient evidence to support her claim of

intentional infliction of emotion distress, which she has not pursued on appeal.

      Affirmed.
