PER CURIAM:
Advertisement
Defendants-appellants, Frank Bower and John Bowen, II, appeal from the district court's order remanding to state court a case they sought to remove to federal court. Appellee John Frye has moved to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
Except in limited circumstances not present here, see Thermtron Products v. Hermansdorfer, 423 U.S. 336 (1976), district court orders of remand are not reviewable by appeal or otherwise. Accordingly, this court does not have jurisdiction to hear this appeal.
Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument, grant appellee's motion, and dismiss the appeal.
DISMISSED.
