UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 08-2334

ALEXANDER HOUSE APARTMENTS, c/o McShea Management, Inc.,

Plaintiff – Appellee,

v.

RAHEEM MUHAMMAD,

Defendant – Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Greenbelt. Deborah K. Chasanow, District Judge. (8:08-cv-03076-DKC)

Submitted: November 5, 2009 Decided: December 17, 2009

Before NIEMEYER, MOTZ, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Raheem Muhammad, Appellant Pro Se. Geoffrey Townsend Hervey, BREGMAN, BERBERT, SCHWARTZ & GILDAY, LLC, Bethesda, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Raheem Muhammad seeks to appeal the district court’s

order remanding this case back to state court. Because the

remand order was based on a lack of subject-matter jurisdiction,

we conclude we lack jurisdiction over this appeal. See

(d) (2006); Things Remembered, Inc. v. Petrarca,

(1995); Ellenburg v. Spartan Motors

Chassis, Inc.,

(4th Cir. 2008); Borneman v.

United States,

(4th Cir. 2000).

Accordingly, we grant Appellee’s motion to dismiss

appeal, deny Muhammad’s motion for stay pending appeal and

motion to strike, and we dismiss the appeal. We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately presented in the materials before the court and

argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
