1Opinion of the Court
GARWOOD, Circuit Judge:
The instant interlocutory appeal concerns the propriety of the district court’s denial of the plaintiffs’ motion to remand this tobacco case to the Louisiana court from which defendants had removed it on the basis of diversity of citizenship, alleging that all the nondiverse defendants were fraudulently joined. The district court certified its denial of the motion to remand under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b) and we then granted plaintiffs’ petition to appeal.
