Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Georgia

(May 24, 2013)
Before HULL, WILSON and FARRIS,* Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
*
Honorable Jerome Farris, United States Circuit Judge for the Ninth Circuit, sitting by
designation.
Case: 12-13376 Date Filed: 05/24/2013 Page: 2 of 2
Plaintiff-Appellant Myron Weinstein appeals the district court’s April 3,
2012 order granting Defendants-Appellees’ motion to dismiss on abstention
grounds. After review and with the benefit of oral argument, we conclude that the
district court did not abuse its discretion in granting Defendants-Appellees’ motion
to dismiss and abstaining under Younger v. Harris, 401 U.S. 37, 91 S. Ct. 746
(1971). See Green v. Jefferson Cnty. Comm’n, 563 F.3d 1243, 1248 (11th Cir.
2009) (“We review a district court’s decision to abstain from exercising its
jurisdiction for an abuse of discretion.”).
AFFIRMED. 1
1
After oral argument on May 17, 2013, Plaintiff-Appellant Weinstein tendered a
handwritten request to supplement the record on appeal. On May 22, 2013, Weinstein filed a
formal motion also requesting to supplement the record on appeal. We deny the requests
because we are not inclined to consider documents that were not filed or considered by the
district court in the first instance.
