UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT

No. 97-2202

IN RE:

FRIEDRICH LU,

Petitioner.

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS

[Hon. George A. O'Toole, Jr., U.S. District Judge]

Before

Torruella, Chief Judge,

Selya and Stahl, Circuit Judges.

Friedrich Lu on brief and petition for mandamus pro se.

NOVEMBER 19, 1997

Per Curiam. For the reasons stated in the district

court order, appellant's complaint properly was dismissed for

want of federal subject matter jurisdiction and the district

court could not enjoin enforcement of the state court order.

Further, we find no basis for mandamus relief here.

The judgment is affirmed, and the petition for mandamus

is denied. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
