Plaintiffs-Appellees,
(District of Utah)
(D.C. No. 97-CV-993)
v.
HOLLI LUNDAHL,
Defendant-Appellant.
ORDER AND JUDGMENT *
Before TACHA, McKAY, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined
unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of
this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The case is
therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.
*
This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the
doctrines of law of the case, res judicata and collateral estoppel. The court
generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order
and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.
Holli Lundahl appeals the district court’s dismissal of Lundahl’s Notice of
Removal and Motion to Consolidate. Finding Lundahl’s appeal utterly without
merit, this court affirms .
Lundahl sought to remove to the United States District Court for the
District of Utah, several actions arising in California state court. After extensive
review of Lundahl’s removal notice, the district court concluded that it lacked
subject matter jurisdiction over the removed actions. The district court went on
to note that although lack of subject matter jurisdiction would normally mandate
a remand of the action to state court, such a remand would be inappropriate here
because the actions removed were no longer pending in any California court.
Accordingly, the district court dismissed the action in its entirety.
Upon review of the Lundahl’s briefs and contentions, the district court’s
Orders, and the entire record on appeal, this court AFFIRMS , for substantially
those reasons set out in the district court’s Orders dated March 24, 1998, and
April 15, 1998. Lundahl’s Motion for Leave to File Supplemental Appendix is
DENIED .
