PER CURIAM:*
We read the district court’s Memorandum Opinion and Order of
February 24, 2003 as remanding this case under § 1367. We
therefore have jurisdiction to review the court’s order. After
reviewing the record and considering the briefs and argument of the
parties, we are persuaded that the district court considered the
appropriate factors for remand under § 1367 and did not abuse its
discretion in remanding this case to state court.
AFFIRMED.
