Before LOKEN, BYE, and COLLOTON, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Arkansas resident James Warford appeals the district court’s1 denial of his
motion to remand his diversity action against United Parcel Service, Inc., which had
been removed from Arkansas state court. After careful de novo review, see In re
Prempro Prods. Liab. Litig., 591 F.3d 613, 619 (8th Cir. 2010), we conclude that, on
its face, the complaint sufficiently demonstrated that the amount in controversy
exceeded the jurisdictional amount. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                       ______________________________

        The HONORABLE JIMM LARRY HENDREN, Chief Judge, United States
District Court for the Western District of Arkansas.
