United States Court of Appeals, Second Circuit
Nov 8, 1963
324 F.2d 499 (2d Cir. 1963)

Opinion

No. 155, Docket 28413.

Argued November 8, 1963.

Decided November 8, 1963.

Appeal from orders of United States District Court for the Southern District of New York; Thomas F. Croake and Charles M. Metzner, JJ.

Orders affirmed.

Annie Lee Banks, appellant, pro se.

Wormser, Koch, Kiely Alessandroni, New York City, Alden Mesrop, New York City, of counsel, for defendants-appellees Union Planters National Bank, and others.

Gerald G. Schwartz, New York City, for defendant-appellee Brewster Management Corp.

Martin Schlesinger, New York City, for defendant-appellee Finkel Realty Co.

Before WATERMAN, MOORE and SMITH, Circuit Judges.


Appellant seeks reversal of two orders of the lower court, the first granting the motion of certain defendants to dismiss appellant's complaint as to them on the ground that that court did not have jurisdiction over the subject-matter of the litigation, and the second dismissing the action altogether for the same reason.

In open court we affirm the orders below. It conclusively appears that there is no federal question involved in this litigation and there is a lack of the required diversity of citizenship to give the federal courts jurisdiction.
