MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
FITZWATER, District Judge.
The Fifth Circuit has yet to decide whether a suit to vacate an arbitration award, if maintained in federal court pursuant to § 10 of the Federal Arbitration Act, must be brought in the district court for the district wherein the award was made. 1 Because this court construes § 10 2 to require such a result, the court concludes that it lacks subject matter jurisdiction over this removed action and, for the reasons set forth below, remands this case to Texas state court.
