Opinion
The trial court on its own motion, more than one year after a cause had been removed to' the local Federal District Court, dismissed the cause for lack of prosecution.
We reverse with directions to reinstate the cause. Once a matter is removed to the federal court, a state trial court and its judge have no jurisdiction over the matter and cannot dismiss it.
