Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit·Decided September 12, 2005·No. No. 04-4023·Published

Opinion

[UNPUBLISHED]

PER CURIAM.

Stacy Abram, Jr. sought to remove a criminal case pending against him in Earle City, Arkansas, to federal court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1443. Upon the City of Earle’s motion, the district court¹ remanded the action to state court. This appeal followed.

We note our authority to review whether the district court erred in denying removal under section 1443, see 28 U.S.C. § 1447(d), and we agree with the district court that Abram failed to show any grounds to support his invocation of section 1443, see 28 U.S.C. § 1443; City of Greenwood v. Peacock, 384 U.S. 808, 828, 86 S.Ct. 1800, 16 L.Ed.2d 944 (1966); Georgia v. Rachel, 384 U.S. 780, 788, 792, 803, 86 S.Ct. 1783, 16 L.Ed.2d 925 (1966).

Accordingly, we affirm.
