. Appellants worked for a consortium do-in® construction work in Saudi Arabia at the behest of the United States Army Corps of Engineers. While there they engaged in d™g offenses, the commission of which is not contested, thereby violating Saudi law. They were arrested, tried and convicted and served time in a Saudi place of confinement.1

Appellants have brought an action against their employer and those associated with the employer a) claiming close affiliation with the United States Army Corps of Engineers sufficient to justify a Bivens type action (see Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971)), and b) aSsertin^ a variety of common law claims.

The principal thrust of the complaint has been that the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution has sufficient scope to create liability for behavior in Saudi Arabia which would contravene United States law if it took place within the confines of this country (without, however, addressing the questions of what is the Saudi Arabian law and whether it would apply). On that basis search and seizure without warrant are put forth as grounds , , ,, , . ., ,. , to support the claims. Also cooperation by the defendants with Saudi Arabian authorities in a manner which plaintiffs contend is inconsistent with treatment of other similarly situated employees forms a basis for ^be Sud"

The district judge painstakingly analyzed the many points raised. He concluded, inter alia’ that:

1) The Bivens action was not viable.

*3762) Diversity jurisdiction covering the state claims was lacking.

We affirm on the opinions of the district court. Stevens v. Morrison-Knudsen Saudi Arabia Consortium, 576 F.Supp. 516 (D.Md. 1983); Memorandum and Order, United States District Court for the District of Maryland, No. H-82-74 (Feb. 29, 1984).

AFFIRMED.
