PER CURIAM:
Gerard Colin commenced a suit in the United States
District Court for the District of Maryland on behalf of himself
and his infant daughter. The complaint arose out of legal action
taken in New Mexico by Gretchen Walther, David L. Walther and their
law firm (collectively “the attorneys”) and allegations of
kidnaping and assault occurring in Maryland by Bente Busch-Spann,
Bettina Lynn, South T. Lynn, Jr., Diego Alicia Calderon and Debbie
Jones. The district court granted the attorneys’ motion to dismiss
for lack of personal jurisdiction. Colin voluntarily dismissed the
remaining defendants so as to challenge in this court the granting
of the motion to dismiss.
We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. See Colin v. Walther, No. CA-03-1434-8-RDB (D. Md. Aug. 22,
2003). 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.
AFFIRMED
