Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
(3:01-CV-2200-L)
________________________________________________________________
November 12, 2002
Before BARKSDALE, DEMOSS, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Plaintiffs Frank J. Stangel and Gail A. Correnti, pro se,
appeal the district court’s order remanding their case to state
court (plaintiffs had removed it to district court) and awarding A-
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
1 Freeman North American, Inc. (A-1), $2,639.15 in attorney’s fees
and costs.
Because the district court determined that it did not have
subject matter jurisdiction over the controversy, this court lacks
jurisdiction. The appeal must be DISMISSED IN PART. See 28 U.S.C.
§ 1447(c) & (d); see also, e.g., Heaton v. Monogram Credit Card
Bank of Ga.,
231 F.3d 994, 997 (5th Cir. 2000), cert. denied,
533
U.S. 915 (2001).
Because Stangel and Correnti have not shown that the district
court abused its discretion in awarding attorney’s fees and costs,
see Valdes v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.,
199 F.3d 290, 292 (5th Cir.
2000), that ruling is AFFIRMED.
Stangel and Correnti’s motion to “supplement, modify and
clarify the record” is DENIED. See Theriot v. Parish of Jefferson,
185 F.3d 477, 491 n.26 (5th Cir. 1999).
DISMISSED IN PART AND AFFIRMED IN PART; MOTION DENIED
