Jerry Family of Sark v. Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp.

161 F. App'x 367
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit·Decided December 30, 2005·No. 05-10952·Unpublished·Cited by 1 cases

Opinion

PER CURIAM: *

This appeal is apparently filed to challenge the district court’s dismissal of plaintiffs’ case after the plaintiffs had “removed” it from a Texas appellate court. Appeal is DISMISSED as FRIVOLOUS.

First, the plaintiffs cannot “remove” to federal court a case they chose to file in state court. Second, no private party has the right to “remove” a case from a state appellate court to a federal court. No issue of arguable merit has been raised concerning the district court’s jurisdiction.

The plaintiffs are warned that while federal courts grant considerable leeway to pro se pleadings, they must still follow the applicable law and procedural rules in presenting their case. No attempt has been made to do so here. Should plaintiffs pursue litigation in this court again in the same manner, they will be sanctioned.

APPEAL DISMISSED, SANCTION WARNING.

*

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
