                 Appeals from the United States District Court
                     for the Northern District of Georgia
                       _________________________

                            (November 17, 2010)

Before BLACK, MARTIN and COX, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      Societe Nationale D’Industries Nutritive, S.A.E. (SONUT), appeals the

district court’s grant of The Coca-Cola Company’s motion to stay in case No. 09-

10942 and denial of SONUT’s motion to reconsider in case No. 09-15284. The

district court granted the motion to stay under the doctrine of international

abstention and, pursuant to the same doctrine, denied the motion to reconsider.

Based upon our review of the record, the briefs, oral argument, and the district

court’s well-reasoned opinion, we conclude the district court did not err in its

decision to grant Coca-Cola’s motion to stay, nor did it err in denying SONUT’s

motion to reconsider.

             AFFIRMED.

                                          2
