USCA4 Appeal: 25-2081 Doc: 17 Filed: 04/30/2026 Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM: Huguette Assaf appeals the district court’s order remanding to state court Assaf’s criminal proceedings, which she attempted to remove to federal court, because removal was improper under 28 U.S.C. § 1443(1). We have reviewed the record on appeal and discern no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s remand order. The Commonwealth of Va. v. Assaf, No. 1:25-cv-01285-RDA-WBP (E.D. Va. Aug. 7, 2025).

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
