United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit. Argued and Submitted June 7, 1990. Withdrawn from Submission November 28, 1990. Resubmitted July 14, 1992. Decided July 29, 1992.
John Doe and John Smith filed separate suits against the manufacturers of a blood clotting factor and the United States. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of all defendants in both cases. Because the two cases raise similar issues, we have consolidated them for the purposes of this appeal.
