OPINION
RAWLINSON, Circuit Judge:
Two issues are presented in this appeal: 1) Whether the Anti-Injunction Act barred the district court from issuing a declaratory judgment precluding the California Superior Court from considering Randtron’s res judicata defense; and 2) whether the district court erred in ruling that the Consent Decree barred Randtron from asserting a counterclaim for contribution against Lodi in a separate state court lawsuit in which Lodi attempted to impose liability on Randtron above and beyond the liability asserted and settled in the federal court lawsuit.
