      [NOT FOR PUBLICATION--NOT TO BE CITED AS PRECEDENT]
                 United States Court of Appeals
                     For the First Circuit

No. 98-1424

                        JAMES MACFARLANE,

           APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

                FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE

       [Hon. Joseph A. DiClerico, Jr., U.S. District Judge]

                              Before

                     Selya, Stahl and Lynch,
                        Circuit Judges.
                                
                                

     James MacFarlane on brief pro se.
     Diane M. Gorrow and Soule, Leslie, Kidder, Sayward & Loughmanon Motion for Summary Disposition for appellee.

October 13, 1998

                                
                                

                                                         Per Curiam.  James MacFarlane appeals pro se from the
    district court's dismissal of his complaint pursuant to
    Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6).  MacFarlane concedes that the district
    court properly dismissed the complaint on the grounds that it
    1) fails to adequately allege state action and 2) fails to
    state a cause of action under New Hampshire law because the
    contested alimony order has not yet been overturned in state
    court. We affirm the dismissal of the complaint on those two
    grounds. See Loc. R. 27.1.
