Northshore Development, Inc. v. Lee
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Decided January 12, 1988No. 86-3783PublishedCited by 19 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
WISDOM, Circuit Judge:
This appeal presents one question: whether the district court’s denial of a motion to vacate was an abuse of discretion. The petitioner, the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corp. (“FSLIC”), asks that a judgment against the New Orleans Federal Savings and Loan Association (“NOFS-LA”) be vacated, because the judgment is unappealable. The judgment was entered by a Louisiana state court, and after removal a federal district court denied the FSLIC’s motion to vacate. Because we find that the district court’s decision was not an abuse of discretion, we affirm.
