United States Court of Appeals For the First Circuit

No. 00-1824

ROSALIE DEROSA,

Plaintiff, Appellant,

v.

ANTHONY LAWRENCE,

Defendant, Appellee.

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS

[Hon. Mark L. Wolf, U.S. District Judge]

Before

Boudin, Chief Judge, Selya and Lynch, Circuit Judges.

Rosalie DeRosa on brief pro se.

September 10, 2001 Per Curiam. Plaintiff appeals from a dismissal

of her complaint for a lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

Reviewing the dismissal de novo we agree that plaintiff did

not allege any basis for federal question jurisdiction, but

appears to be attempting to appeal from a state court

judgment, which she cannot do in federal district court.

Her response to the court's order to show cause also failed

to offer any facts indicating that it is not a legal

certainty that her claim involves less than the amount

needed to sustain jurisdiction on the basis of diversity of

citizenship.

Affirmed.
