Filed On: June 3, 2020

Andre Juste,

Appellant

v.

Turner Christopher Wilson,

Appellee

ON APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

BEFORE: Henderson and Rao, Circuit Judges, and Sentelle, Senior Circuit

Judge

J U D G M E N T

This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court

for the District of Columbia and on the brief and appendix filed by appellant. See Fed.

R. App. P. 34(a)(2); D.C. Cir. Rule 34(j). It is

ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the district court’s order filed October 8, 2019,

be affirmed. The district court properly dismissed the case without prejudice on the

ground that the complaint failed to allege facts sufficient to establish the court’s subject

matter jurisdiction over the case. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(1) (“A pleading that states a

claim for relief must contain a short and plain statement of the grounds for the court’s

jurisdiction . . . .”). The case is not a civil action arising under federal law, see 28 U.S.C.

§ 1331, or between citizens of different states with an amount in controversy of more

than $75,000, see 28 U.S.C. § 1332; nor does the complaint allege any other basis for

the district court’s jurisdiction.
