United States Ninth Circuit
California Shock Trauma Air Rescue v. State Compensation Ins. Fund, 09-16810
In an dispute arising from several state-law claims and involving the issue of whether the expectation of a federal defense, without more, is sufficient to establish federal jurisdiction over state-law claims, dismissal by district court for lack of subject matter jurisdiction is affirmed where causes of action are based entirely on state claims, each of which does not, on its face, turn on a federal issue.
